Welcome lovely!! I hate using my CPAP too. It makes me nuts. Welcome to our wonderful dysfunctional little forum family.

Welcome love!!! I wish I didnt have to do a liquid diet lol. That's going to suck

Okay so I have 26 days left until surgery and I'm FREAKING OUT lol. So many mixed emotions and stuff. Ugh

So is anyone else freaking out? Each day that gets closer and closer I get more and more terrified. I know this is what I want but my mind is trying to psych me out.

Welcome love! You are one day before me lol. We got this

Welcome to our family love!!! We're excited to have you. I'm also having the bypass done. Congrats on your first granddaughter! Hopefully you have your date soon!

Probably. I've got a list of housework and errands to fo before surgery that I've slowly been working on and I get soooo hungry. At night especially.

I get nothing but liquids. At least I can have sf pudding and sf jello lol. I also get diet coke but I may just quit my carbonated drink habit now so that it's not so hard after. I made some chicken bone broth to freeze so that I have that done and i need to start making my jello and pudding to store for my liquid diet but it can be so overwhelming.

Omg hahahahah same here. I know I'm probably going to die of embarrassment in a few years but at least it's better than dying from being fat.

I'm supposed to do 14 days but I'm going to do 21 just to make sure I'm good to go. Surgeon said my BMI isnt super high and my labs last month looked good so he's not really worried that my liver will be huge but I think "better safe than sorry". I have to get my labs rechecked June 3rd for June 19th surgery

I will hopefully moved to purees around my bday but I seriously doubt it lol. Wish they made a good birthday cake flavored protein powder lmao.

Welcome lovely!!!! Omg I dont even want to think about Thanksgiving lmao. I often cough and pee or sneeze and pee and my sons think it's so funny. I get pissed lol. (Pun intended) but I'm ready to not have all this weight holding me back and making my life a living hell.

Welcome to our family. We all could use a brother lol. As far as finding something to occupy your time, what about volunteering at an animal shelter or something that you're passionate about?

I got a phentermine prescription too but from my PCP. It's supposed to help with the liquid diet so I'm on day 2 of taking it and I start my liquid diet next Sunday. I hear the first few days of the liquid diet are a b***h.

Welcome to our family!!!

Welcome!!!! July 2nd is my birthday :D

That means you guys get to tell us all about it lol. So exciting.

Welcome to our dysfunctional family congrats on your surgery date love!!! It's a wonderful feeling that we have so many other people who can relate to us.

We have to do 2 weeks and we can have: Mandatory 3 shakes a day for meals. Snacks: SF JELLO, SF PUDDING, DECAF TEA/COFFEE, DIET SOFT DRINKS, YOGURT, SKIM MILK, SF POPSICLES, BROTH, and Water flavored with crystal light/mio

Wow they are close lol. Do you know if they're making you do a preop diet yet?

Congrats! My surgery date is 2 days after yours.

Girl we got this!! I've been doing the same thing lol. My wonderful kids remind me that I'm fat all the time and that I need this to be able to be a good mom. I'll be healthy and show them how to live healthy. We are all surgery siblings so that means we will always lift each other up.

Girl me too! I'm going to be posting so many cute pics that I will be Instagram famous lmao. Just kidding....but no really lmao

My bday is July 2 and i will for sure be miserable lmao

My husband and family have already been warned and I have a natural attitude already lmao. I really feel for them.
