Sweet as peaches

@Sweet as peaches I agree as well. Yes you do pee a lot. It is crazy how much you will have to go. The beautiful thing is the IV drop after surgery. I am sure this is TMI (However I peed about 8 times over night). The nurses were like well at least we know she works lol.

Looks like you have a meal plan out. I know you will do excellent. I had my pre-op services in the hospital today for last minute bloods/urine and paperwork to sign along with a welcome surgical package only. Plus the scrubs I mentioned early all in 1 hour.

Ladies, I am so fortunate to go through this stuff With you guys. I am so happy who knew when I signed up this would happen. Yay😎.

Congrats!

The three amigas. Wonder powers activate sleeve style.

@Sweet as peachessorry so late on this but I am glad that you are doing amazing. This is hard but it prepares you for an emotional discovery. You find out just how strong you are.
@Newme17 Remember my B-line to subway on day one. It happens. Our brains tell us, "Well its only one slice. Whats the worst that can happen?" lol our brains are like teenagers trying to get us to play hooky from school lol.
I am loving the three musketeer vibe we have. It is awesome. I honestly, talk about you guys to my family, friends and co-workers. They will see my reading one of your post and laughing. I will say, well its these two amazing women that I met on this forum and they post daily updates about their journey. My boyfriend have read some of your post and he will say, "Hey you did that. Or hey why not try what she tried?". Having people understand you and are going through the same thing makes this journey way more easier and funnier.

Thanks @Sweet as peaches. I'm eager to find out how you fared these last four days as well! I know you'll keep us posted. 😉

I hope you feel better nip that cold in the bud.😍

Thank you, guys. All is great today and I completed my shakes today and have been doing great. I got pre-op appointments Monday and Tuesday in continued prep for 5/15. Also, i see my surgeon Tuesday.
An interesting start of the week plus I get to see how much weight I loss these last four days.

Thanks hon. Today is the last day before tomorrow...lol. I did allow myself to have the one thing I love so much, nachos. I enjoyed it as well. One thing that fared very well with me, was grocery shopping earlier. I didn't buy one thing that I would normally want for myself. My mind is set on my protein shakes and whatever I'm allowed to eat for my one meal. (I'll find out tomorrow). Coming down with a little bit of a cold it seems...EmergenC , vitamins, sun light, to the rescue!!! I will not be sick. If I have to call my PCP tomorrow for Rx, I will! This will not happen.

You got this. You can do it. I am here cheering for both of you!!!

Everything is peaceful here, also. My youngest is on a field trip and the others are sleeping. I'm up early to have my shake and check in here. I am extremely proud of you.

Well, isn't that something....I had the same thought/feeling when I was replying to your status a few mins ago. We've all really hit it off....and I'm glad. I also believe that it's meant to be as well.

@Newme17 aww shucks you are so sweet. I feel like you and @Thejeweledsleeve are my besties on here we definitely compliment each other and I'm so looking forward to you guys continued success.

Uplifting and freeing....hmm....sounds like my Jesus.
I'll be on the quest to make sure I try different things. Sometimes we get so stuck in our diet ways that we eat/drink all the same stuff over and over. I want to try mixing soups, proteins, broth, etc. myself. Thanks for you updates. They really help, just as @Thejeweledsleeve's. Thank you both.

Oh yes! Honesty does save you and it feels uplifting and freeing. No I mixed the chicken broth with my carrot/ginger soup. It was filling.

Thank you I am pushing on.

The first 3 days are always the hardest. I was agitated, angry and ready to eat everything in sight. Honestly, you just have to push past it. I say drink tons and tons of water. I did that for day 2 - 14 and I spent more time having to pee that I did not realize that I was hungry.

I'll accept that faith you have and apply it as well. I was already battling whether I should finish something ate today, for tomorrow. I think I'll just say no (give it to my hubby) and call it quits on eating everything in sight.
I managed to do an hour of Just Dance with my girls. All 251 pounds moved. 😂 after I sat down with sweat rolling off for a bit, drank a bottle of water, and took a shower, I felt so much better. Kept thinking how much better I'll feel without this fat and dancing. Another reason I can't fall like I did today. Got to keep on fighting, the prize is near.

Definitely! I truly Thank Him and all the support on this site from my heart I pray for all of you to be successful and continue to be positive.

That's good. At least one of us did. (That would be you!). I was beating myself up here. I literally feel sick to my stomach now. Sooo, I'll do some Just Dance with my daughters in a few moments. Make me feel a little better.

Wow 😄. The hunger police is really on watch. I also has a few strawberries I am a barrel of confession today. Thanks @Newme17

I did stay away from the soda, breads and candy.

Oh no! You and me both. I totally went off the wagon today. I mean totally. There wasn't anything healthy but a few sips of protein shake this morning.
Hey, let's back on tomorrow...and maybe kindly let your friend know you won't be doing lunch for a while???? I had to let our cleaning lady know not to bring me any more breakfast tacos from the local Jalisco. 😕

I had an epic fail I was doing good until someone wanted me to eat lunch with them. I feel so damn guilty.
