  1. Tried the cookie butter one. I HATED IT! But I do like the muscle milk.
  2. Absolutely. I had nervousness and anxiety until they knocked me out with anesthesia ?. I was sleeved on 12/11 and it’s been a small challenge but not so bad. COME HERE AND VENT ANY TIME YOU NEED TOO!!! There are some wonderful people here who give you that PUSH! It make a difference when someone has been where you are! Don’t worry too much. You’ll be fine. ?
  3. I went to Walmart and actually bought a 64 ounce cup. It’s fantastic. It’s a knock off yeti and was only 20 bucks. That’s how I keep up with my fluids and I also HATE room temperature fluids. It keeps things cold for 3 days.
  4. THIS is me!!! Me me me! I feel your pain to the soul. I’m only 5 days post op!
  5. YAY!!! ???? Congrats!!! Hopefully Your insurance company is speedy with their decision! Good luck sweetie!
  6. I was having that issue until about 15 minutes ago. I prepared some potato soup that my dietician suggested. I put it in my small bowl, and after that last bite I took I sneezed. I’ve seen people say that’s a tell for them so I stopped. I’m not sure if that’s my “you’re ur full sign” but we’ll see.
  7. Thanks!!! That is a good idea!!! I’ll try it.
  8. I don’t care WHAT it is. I can always taste protein and it SUCKS! ? I tried the unjury chicken soup and BLECH! I had such high hopes for it. Everyone loves it. It’s so gross to me.
  9. Thanks guys. I just wanted to make sure I’m not the only one. ?
  10. I’m literally sitting here sad. I’m sad because I can’t eat food. It sounds so dumb to me. But I’m literally MOURNING and I feel ungrateful because of it. I’m 3 days post op and I’m complaining. Is this normal??
  11. Same here. I’m on my browser. But I do need to update my iPhone. That may be the problem.
  12. I just admire your positivity. Anytime I see your posts they make me smile. Congrats on being post op and happy birthday to you!!!
  13. Thank you!!! I appreciate you so much. You’re the first person I ever spoke with on here. Love your positivity. ?
  14. Hey everyone!!! I’m sleeved and recovering. Gas pains were bothering me this morning. Once I got up and moved some of it passed and I feel relieved. Awaiting my barium swallow now.
  15. Oh yes!! So I’ve been told. At the risk of being gross the first fart was awesome. The relief... WHEW. My surgeon caught me walking down the hallway and he literally jumped for joy. ?? I love him.
  16. Hey guys I made it. I was sleeved yesterday at 8am. I’m in my room. Using my spirometer and I’ve walked 4 times. Not much pain aside from gas pains.
  17. I got my time. Surgery at 8:00am on 12/11. I’m excited!!! Last day. Clear liquids only!!!
  18. Same as you. Lol!! My surgery is 12/11 so it’ll be a while. But it’s good to get an idea of where and who!
  19. Don’t worry surgery twin!! Everything will work out. At least you get to spend your holidays with your family!
  20. Hey everyone! I’m a fellow cyster. I just met with my surgeon for my final pre op appointment. He pointed out that I may plateau but to KEEP. WITH. THE. PLAN. We lose, stall, then bottom out and apparently that’s common place. My surgery is scheduled for 12/11.
