  1. Yes. I understand totally it is very scary but at the end of the day it's so worth it and you don't not want to keep on postponing because then there not going to do it. And ready for both appointments I'm sure you have already done to do it all over again would be such a pain.

  8. Ok. Question. I had my surgery oct 8 2015 I was 316 before surgery went down 295 day of surgery now I'm 272. But I can't seem to get below 272 I weigh my foods like 3oz fish sometimes less and about 1oz of salad and that's it. I start physical therapy next week. Don't know.
  9. Ok so one thing I know how to do as an adult is eat. I'm starting to struggle now I feel like I'm in this alone I know I'm not but I feel so limited now I'm an emotional eater or was and its like I'm thinking how many times I can eat how many ounces and trying not to eat and drink at the same time this is starting to all get overwhelming. I don't have food or cigarettes to turn to yes I can go out and walk but I feel so gloomy lately

  18. I've been there on my pre-op diet and it really ducks but you should be good as long as you consistent with your Water intake and If you feel tired that happens to but are u having broth? I was able to have broth sugar free Jello and Popsicles crystal light and water . Sent from my SM-G900T using Tapatalk
  19. It is normal remember you having nothing but liquids nothing that has any consistency. Your cleaning yourself out. Sent from my SM-G900T using Tapatalk
  20. Thank you and I'm here asking because I know people have been through it. Sent from my SM-G900T using Tapatalk
  21. Thank you I mean I know we all looked online before surgery and thought everything after is smooth sailing or thought it won't be easy but going through it your like oh why am I doing this . Sent from my SM-G900T using Tapatalk
  22. So I'm 6 days post-op and I'm alright. But the only thing is I'm not hungry at all but want to eat. I never really knew how serious my relationship to food really was until now I've done so much Soup sugar free Jello and Popsicles and broth and Protein shakes and tea pre-op and now post-op that I dred taking them especially my Protein Shakes I don't get nauseous but I have no desire of drinking it or having soup or sugar free jello or sugar free popsicles. And I'm not going to force myself to have them because I don't want to end up getting nauseous and throwing up. So my question is is there any advice or anything that you've done to get through the liquid phase until you got to your puree. Today I had sugar free chocolate pudding with sugar free whip cream and I felt like I was in heaven it was sad because my mother could actually see in my face how satisfied I was with that. Please if you guys have any advice or anything that you've done personally to get through it I would love to know. Sent from my SM-G900T using Tapatalk
  23. Do you guys find it very important to have a nutritionist after surgery? Or I mean after weight loss surgery? Sent from my SM-G900T using Tapatalk
  24. Are there any good post op cook books. Of course for people who've had weight loss surgery ? Sent from my SM-G900T using Tapatalk
  25. Sorry for misunderstanding; my post-op instructions include pudding and yogurt as part of the 'full liquid' diet--to begin immediately upon discharge from the hospital. But my point still stands--can you try mixing it into only a tablespoon or two of a Protein shake, instead of the whole thing? It'll be much easier for taste to get it down in a few mouthfuls instead of a whole shake, especially since you can't chug anymore. I did that today with a juice in a spoon did it but I had to wash my mouth out soon nasty still Sent from my SM-G900T using Tapatalk
