Apparently, cheese is a no-no for me. :-(

Taken down my Match.com profile. I think I have had my last first date.

I have lost 37 lbs....I stalled for 2 weeks, was getting upset about it and this morning, 4 lbs down!

Treated myself to a 1/2 way to goal gift...a new purse & wallet. I will carry it until I meet goal as a reminder of how far I've come and that I need to continue to make good choices.

I might go crazy on this pre op diet.

I got my A1C results at my 12 month post op check in. 4.8!!! Wahoo!

Will I ever not feel like an impostor shopping in the non-plus size section? I keep thinking a sales clerk will redirect me to the plus sizes.

As of right now, 5 weeks exactly since my RNY, I've lost 22 pounds.

I am sorry they did that to you.
Get on the phone or go in person if you can and bug them about what they can do for you. They have already approved you, they owe you an explanation and how they will solve this for you so you can improve your health.
Good luck, hopefully they won't make you wait too long.

Maybe I should try protein shakes now while I’m on my full liquid pre-op diet. Any protein drinks suggestions? Is it true even if I found one drink I like, pre op I might think its gross? Question, questions???
-
the protein shakes will definitely keep your appetite in control. I really like the Premier shakes, you can find them at Costco. I like chocolate and vanilla, I have not tried strawberry. You have to carefully read what the label says on the shakes, some have very high calories and carbs, I don't think that is very good. The Premier have 170 calories and 5g of carbs, that is excellent. Good luck.

11 days post op - off pain meds for two days - stitches healing nicely, down 9 lbs since surgery. Sooooo tired

Down 20 lbs OVERALL (pre & post op weight loss) - and my clothes still fit the same. Grrr. I bet if I gained it all back I wouldn't be able to squeeze into them again.

$92,140.43 was billed for my sleeve surgery and the surgery a few hours later due to complications!!! I am again reminded how lucky I am to have insurance. Obama care required BCBS to accept me despite my pre-existing conditions. Now I am off all meds and headed to a healthier life. My heart is filled with gratitude that I didn't have to wait for Medicare to have healthcare. I will not waste this tool.

Ugggghhhhh... my MIL toasted a piece of cinnamon raisin bread for herself for a snack, and it smelled so effing good, I had go to another part of the house. I haven't missed bread a whole lot so far, but tonight I'm sad.

I had my surgery aug 12th.I'm still on this protein shake diet and see then dietiantion tomorrow.The shakes are starting to make me feel sick hope i dont have to drink them forever and i want some soft food's but still need to get my protein in.I tried scammbled eggs it didnt stay down
-
I had my surgery August 18, 1 week ago today. Don't you have a meal plan? You should start eating yogourt, light soups with protein added, pureed fruits, lots of stuff. I have it all planned for me until week 5 where it gets more general.
I hope your dietitian knows about bypass and she can help you come up with a real meal plan.
Good luck!

Depression starting to kick in. I view this web site and read all the stories and look at the pictures of everyone who is starting a new life. I still don't know if I'll be approved for the surgery and may not know for the next 5 yrs. Surely if there is a waiting list of 5 yrs wouldn't someone still get in touch with me before hand? Okay, living in Canada we are use to waiting for certian specialists. I waited one full year to see an arthritis specialist. But come on!!!! No doctor in this city does bariactric surgery and it's so necessary that the doctor has 5 years of patients before me?!!? This just sucks. I'm going to have to just forget about this site and the surgery if I'm going to make it to 5yrs from now to see if I can have the surgery or not. F*ck it, I've always been fat and alone. this site is wonderful for those who don't have to wait but torture for those still stuck. I'm out , or I'll be boo hooing for months. Learned a lot here and may see you all in 2020.
