    Whoever came up with these Greek Yogurt 100 Calorie containers is an outstanding person because this is the ONLY thing getting me through my pre-op diet. I can have one of these a day and it's becoming the highlight of my entire day.
    So thanks, Yoplait!

    I'm on Day 1 of my pre-op and I'm beyond hangry. I don't want this broth, I don't want these people bothering me, I just want to throw a tantrum and then eat a pound of food.
    I know it will pass, but good LORD this is the worst.
    How did you deal with being hangry?

    yamshams got a reaction from missheidi47 in New face.. New Make up   
    I mix high-end and drugstore. I love Smashbox, IT! Cosmetics, Yves Saint Laurent for lip products, and Make Up Forever. I don't buy high-end mascara, though. You can get great mascara from Cover Girl and Loreal for under $10 and it's just as good.

    yamshams got a reaction from Inner Surfer Girl in Starting back to school. NERVOUS. Encouragement? Advice?   
    Hi! I know it's hard to control the nerves, but you are making a huge step and you should be proud! I'm an academic advisor for adult students and it never fails to inspire ME when I see people taking that huge leap forward. There are a lot of folks just like you who are wading back into education and every single one of you guys should be so, so proud of taking this first step.
    Welcome back!

    Sorry you are feeling this way. That's never easy for anyone. I didn't think about all that. I tried pushing it all out of my mind and just focused on one day at a time. I was very nervous of the surgery but kept trying to tell myself it was all going to be okay. I would deal with how I looked in the end, at the end. As for what you can and can't eat....everyone goes through this in their own way. I've read several people post they can eat anything and everything and not have any issues....I myself, can't eat meat. But, I'm only 3 mo's out. The Dr said give it 6 mo's and all should be good. Each day I find something new to try and it works. So..you can't be scared of the unknown. I will say trying sweets now...or candy...I have no desire. They are all way to sweet and I just don't want them. That can only be a win win! Good luck. Add me as a friend, if you want and I'll help be your support team!

    If you feel the need to be afraid of something, find something different. Be afraid of the things that could happen because you DIDN'T have WSL.
    Be afraid of developing diabetes and all the complications that come along with that.
    Be afraid of becoming home bound because its too difficult to walk down the street to the corner.
    Be afraid that you won't be able to play with your kids or grand kids because you just don't have the energy.
    Be afraid of all the co-morbidities that you currently don't have, but could develop without significant weight loss.
    Be afraid of not living a long healthy life!
    Now those are things to be afraid of!
