When you plan a dinner, already plan a second dinner with the leftovers. Example. You have Beans and rice separate. Plan on refried beans and Spanish rice the next day and already tell yourself you need to save half the food for tomorrow night. It should help you get smaller portions to start with Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App

Add chopsticks to the mix. That'll slow things down even more. That's what I'm going to do when I can eat again Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App

Grats. Mine is the 15th Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App

I wondered this as well Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App

Actually, you do not need to give your employer the diagnosis (unless you want too). If your doctor has you on a lifting restriction of 10 lbs or less for 3 weeks, that what you need to disclose.True. I didn't need to. But they are happy for me and I don't have to worry about asking for days off. I have my fmla paperwork filled out. I've always been a very open person.

I wish I could get the bypass but it cost way more. We can still lose together. You will probably lose more than me, but I'll give you a run for your money Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App

Lol all good. Yep sleeve Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App

Any updates? I'm going to dr hernandez too Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App

I have already told people at work and all of my family know. The people at work have seen me struggle with diet after diet and give up. They are supportive. One is my boss and she needs to know in case I have to miss more work for Dr visits or complications. I'm doing this for me. Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App

Thank you for the reply. That sounds like a plan. Maybe for 1 week I'll do a Protein shake for Breakfast and lunch and have a healthy dinner. I feel like I'm a nutrisystem add when I say that lol Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App

I'm going to Mexico to have my sleeve done with Dr Hernandez on Dec 15. They only require a 5 day pre op diet. This seems a little low to me. Anyone else have only the 5 day pre op and did you have any issues? Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App
