These are some good suggestions, I'll need to try some alternative shake options for after surgery.

@@coodaben sorry about you being in ICU I'm glad you made it through and your doing better. Keep us posted on how you're doing.

This is interesting. I never heard of such a thing. Is it that bad people would need a diaper? I hear many people not being able to do a number 2.

There are many reasons for having a revision and it's not always due to eating too much. Just my 2 cents

Ah! I don't have a date yet, but tentatively planning for February

@@Sajijoma, Congratulations! You look wonderful! Keep up the good work!

Cool, I'm off I-20E outside Atlanta. I'm getting my sleeve with Dr. Macik @Northside Hospital.

@@Slim and Trim, this new to me. I haven't heard of that before. I hope someone on here has. I'm in GA too, who's your doctor?

Yes, when I find myself getting impatient, I have to put my mind on something else, and that's hard to do when this is a major life event.

Oh ok, that's great!

Hi there! Thanks for sharing your story. Congratulations on the weight loss and new baby. Try going back to the basics. Protein, low carb, low sugar, no bread, 64 oz of water a day, and exercise @ least 3 hours a week.

Congratulations! You made it to the final stages. Which surgery are you getting?

@@BreBaby♡ I know how you feel, I'm on month 4 of visits. I'm ready too. I don't live in Maryland, but, we can be friends,

You look wonderful! I hope you feel really good since all of the weight loss. Are you continuing to take your Vitamins? When you mentioned that you don't drink your Protein, that concerns me because I do since I'm a vegetarian. I do eat cheese, eggs, tofu, and almonds. I haven't had my surgery yet.@@tpoor25

@FDclerical@stacyrg2 did y'all have Gerd before your surgery? Just curious, cuz I have Gerd now, it's not severe, but I feel it if I eat more than 1200 cals a day.

What an amazing transformation. You look great! Keep it up.

@@harmony5001, congratulations! You're on the road to a new you and just in time for the new year!

@@FDclerical sorry to hear about your father, sister, and miscarriage. I know it's was difficult for you, and I'm glad you're working on getting on track. Did the doctor's know how your sleeve was twisted? This is my first time hearing about that and I'm glad you brought awareness to this situation. I'm rooting for you for your upcoming surgery date.

This post just reminded me to make an appointment to the counselor. My psychologist referred me to a place who offered counseling on food addictions, binge eating, etc. I'm a binge eater. I've suppressed it on my own for a few months, but as soon as stress wreaks my body or hormones get out of whack, I'm subject to starting the crazy cycle all over again...

Congratulations to all of the Sleever's who have your December surgery dates! I pray all goes well with you.

Try going a month or so with high protein, low carb and low sweets and no bread. Sugar should be no more than 8g. It'll be hard, but you will definitely lose weight.

@@sheetmetalgirl, I agree with @@Dairymary, maybe go back to the basics first and check to see if you have PCOS or insulin resistance. Also, check your insurance company to see if you ate a candidate for a revision. I don't know much about revisions...

@@My4Brownies congratulations! I hope you have a speedy recovery.

@@NJ1980, congratulations! I'm glad you have your surgery date. It is just around the corner. I know you are super excited!

@@x0stina, prayed your surgery went well. Let us know how you're doing when you get a moment. Don't forget to walk, walk, walk. ☺
