Everything posted by About time for me

  1. Had min done the 15th. Today I feel a little better. The gas pains are the most bothersome and painful. Getting the oz "cups" of water in are almost imposible for me. Keeping it real. Best of luck,
  2. Starting liquid tomorrow for surgery next Wednesday, so nervous, but so ready.
  3. My insurance approval was nothing, it was all the other hoops to jump thru.
  4. 5 days, 3 20 grams of protein Slimfast shakes, water, sugar free jello and popsicles, also broth.
  5. Have you started the process yet?
  6. I guess I shouldn't have said "binge" eating. I like McDonald's sausage biscuits, so I was getting that for breakfast. Tomorrow I start my liquid diet.
  7. Did anyone binge eat before pre-op liquid diet? Feeling like I shouldnt, but I will never have it again.
  8. Agreed!!! But we can do this!!!
  9. March 15th, start liquid diet this Wednesday. Anybody say goodbye to food by sort of binge eating?
  10. You've got this!!!!
  11. Never thought I'd be this worried. Things like, what if I can't do this, what if I don't 100 lbs, what's the point! If I do this for 50 lbs, I really am going to be pissed.
  12. I'm sure it will be fine! I, to be honest, was just about to get my period. I was extra emotional, without knowing why.
  13. I was OUT, so much better than the colonoscopy!
  14. I have to work the week I'm doing that, ugh!!!! Did you get the 3 shakes and SF jello and popsicles?
  15. That is what I mean, just because you don't talk the talk, you get dinged. I've been doing this for two years. March 15th is my date, I'm scared to death.
  16. The therapist really helped me with the eating to stifle something. Emotional eating. She helped me identify it, and once she did I was able to grab ahold of it and deal with it in other ways.
  17. They did drug and nicotine screening, plus all sorts of vitamins
  18. March 15, getting into serious panic mode as I look at those ounce sized "drink/meal" cups thinking goodbye whoppers, I used to love you, you are now an enemy.
  19. Tele med! She spent the entire time typing! Someone did give me the advice not to say, oh I want to choke/kill my husband, lol
  20. I was asked how did I get so obese. Was I aware that I was heavy? I wanted to scream at her, no dumbass, I think I'm so skinny and I'm here by mistake. But I burst into tears, promptly failed and had to go to 9 months of therapy at $40 a session.
  21. Best of luck!!!! Happy days ahead!! Sent from my SM-N910V using BariatricPal mobile app
  22. I failed mine, had to do 9 months of therapy. Looking back I'm glad I did. I'm finally at the almost end point. Need the endoscopy, then surgery in January. food has to be monitored now, high Protein, low carbs and multi Vitamins. Sent from my SM-N910V using the BariatricPal App
