I often wonder why someone asks a question here and it's a simple question. The replies get progressively more judgmental and seems to turn into a question of morality or the dreaded stretched sleeve due to the munchies,
How about we just answer the question and forgo all the drama that ensues? It would be a lot easier to retain members who can give quality, to the point answers.
All the rest sounds like Blahblahblah.

Yesssss!! I’m not married but I would like to date and it would be really nice to know that I can fit into a guys jacket! Love those movies when the woman wakes up next to a guy and puts his shirt on and it looks like a dress. I want that!! Just dreaming over here lol.

I really like Premier Protein Water. 20 grams of Protein per bottle. I found it as Sams.

Something creative. I just bought a “paint by numbers” from Amazon. It will keep me busy for weeks!

Started working out at week 5. That’s when I finally had the energy to exercise.

I was told no caffeine for the first 6 weeks but Decaf was ok to have right away. Not going to lie, I started drinking half caf coffee around week 5. I have had regular coffee a few times but try to stick to the half caf as much as possible.

I only wish I had this problem. My clothes are nowhere near what you are experiencing. You should be proud and excited. Once you put on clothes that actually fit everyone will notice. It will be the most amazing feeling ever so be prepared!!

I moved through my stages a little quicker than expected but my nutritionist gave me the go ahead. I wouldn’t be too concerned about that. The Doritos and chewing and spitting is the concerning part. Junk food three weeks after surgery is not good. I would make an appointment with your nutritionist and/or therapist as soon as possible. You do not want to get back to old habits. Just remember, this is a learning process. we all make mistakes. It’s how we recover from them that counts. You’ve got this!

That is all true. I am way past sipping Water. I am now able to drink a bottle of water like a normal person lol. Drinking enough fluids is no longer an issue so I am not afraid of becoming dehydrated if I have regular coffee.

We will get there! I'm so glad I found this website. I'm pre op too, and love all of the support I'm seeing here!

I can wear belts, go on rides, shop at any store, play with my kids, wear a swim suit, you name it. Everything is better. The BEST though...going into my doctor with NO SHAME. All my results are great and within normal limits.

Let's try this again. No diabetes, consider & I hope a good portion go away. See what happens when I get sleepy? I can't spell diabetes but I can spell antihypertensive. That happens only if you're brilliant and dyslexic!

I have made goals for myself to keep me motivated throughout this process. My nutritionist has given me a 3 month, 6 month and one year goal but I also made some mini goals in between. I am looking for suggestions on the rewards. Going out to a nice dinner is no longer a great reward lol. I also don’t want to buy too many new clothes until I get closer to my goal weight. Any suggestions would be appreciated!!
Today I hit my first goal and my reward is a spa day. Can’t wait to schedule it!
