    Smaller clothes...

    Everyone loses weight differently. I was able to wear my pre op jeans for 7 weeks after surgery & then moved down a size. I've even heard of others losing up to 100lbs before needing to get smaller clothes.
  2. Increase water & salt. Try drinking a little bouillon or adding it to other broths you are drinking.

    Hate eating now

    Do you Pinterest? There are tons of WLS recipes on there & a lot of them look terrific.

    Post Op Treat

    I have a trip to Cancun coming up in April that I am looking forward to & using as incentive to stay on track. I get to buy all new clothes for the trip & there is going to be a black tie dinner one night. I am 19 days post op today.
  5. I just got the call telling me to check in at 6:30 tomorrow morning..............OOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG this is REALLY happening!!! I just have to get through today without killing &/or maiming anyone
  6. I'm right there with you! I have my pre op tomorrow. Bring on the New Year!
  7. Good luck to today's Sleevers! I'm wishing you a speedy recovery.
  8. I'm joining the December party! I just got scheduled for the 31st. I'm terribly excited & getting nervous. I'm in Portland, OR
  9. It sounds to me like he is afraid of change. Just keep reassuring him, like Southern Sleever said, you will have lots of changes for a while but you will settle into a "new normal" & some of the changes may enhance his life too.
  10. I just got official approval & am scheduled for 12/31. I thought I would see if anyone else will be ringing in the new year from a hospital room with a new tummy

    Preop diet... take 2

    Good Luck! I think that it is always harder to cut back the second time. It's like you just don't have the same determinations.

    Approved finally!

    Congratulations!
  15. Please say a quick prayer or cross your fingers for me! My doctor has a peer to peer appeal scheduled for between 2 & 4 PST. I have done everything I was supposed to do at this point & I really want this surgery. Thanks!
