My nutritionist said I could have egg salad, chicken salad and tuna salad. I'll live off of that for a week along with prison protein shakes. Don't think I'll be eating anything pureed. HW: 256 SW: 238(4/25/18) CW: ? GW: 165

Wow! Six weeks of liquids is a long time. Tomorrow is my first post op appointment and I'm anxious to see how much I've lost since surgery. HW: 256 SW: 238(4/25/18) CW: ? GW: 165

Hopefully I'll join that phase tomorrow. Not sure if I'll be eating pureed foods..mostly soft foods sound more appealing. Anything is better after a month of liquids! HW: 256 SW: 238(4/25/18) CW: ? GW: 165

My only regret is that I didn't have the surgery sooner! There will always be those negative people who feel its their right to have a say so in someone else's life! The decision is yours and yours alone. I only told a select few and those few supported me to the point that they joined me in the liquid diet! If your come this far and have a date, don't let anyone deter your decision. Ask yourself if its better to be unhealthy!

Im relaxing watching Netflix. My first post appointment is Monday and I'm looking forward to going to the next phase of soft/pureed foods. Its been a month of liquids! ?

PJs...I didn't like walking the halls with those ugly hospital gowns on.

When discharged, I was advised not to drive for at least three days.

You must remain focused. Yes you cheated... start over and don't cheat again, as you could possibly delay your surgery. During my liquid diet, know if I messed up could delay my surgery kept me focused. You can do it... its all mental!

Welcome! All of us have a story and you'll find a lot of inspiration, encouragement and motivation here. Don't be afraid to post here, because you'll never know unless you ask!

Let me look for a longer bench! [emoji6][emoji23]?

I told you it would get better! Hang in there and I'm saving you a seat next to me on the loser's bench!

My surgery was April 25 and I'm returning to work on May 9. So far, I've had no feelings of nausea and the liquids are staying down. I hope to move to soft/pureed foods on Monday.

Was sleeved on April 25 and had my first movement three days later with no meds.

Congratulations! Take every pound lost as a milestone. Keep up the great work and don't worry about the length of time, but know your future looks brighter [emoji274][emoji295][emoji275]

Im in South Florida... it'll get better soon

Where in Florida?

Push through...you got this!

Welcome to the loser's bench!

Hang in there and stay focused. I'll save you a seat on the loser's bench!

My surgery was April 25 and the only pain I've experienced was gas. If your pain persists, I suggest contacting your surgeon. Are you able to get in your protein with all that pain?

You got this!

Girl, your posts are always so funny! Hang in there... you're doing good.
