HelloPenny

Hey how's it going?! I can't eat anything since my fill. I may have to get some taken out. I keep thinking it's going to get better.

Hey Girl! Love the believe picture on your signature. I may have to steal it! Just checking in on ya!

Hey There! I got my first fill on Monday, too!! It went smooth too. I didn't even see the Doctor. Just his PA. Took like 2 mins! I haven't been able to eat really. Eggs and Protein Drinks! Again! I guess it's ok because I have lost 11 pounds since Monday. COOCOO CRAZY!

Hi Trina! My cousins name is Katrina and I call her Trina. Your profile picture is so pretty. Your hair is great! You look so happy. Thank you for the friend request. I need lots of friends!

Hi Ronda! Thanks for checking in on me. I am doing OK, I suppose. I am very hungry, which worries me. I try and drink protein during the day and have soup in the evening for dinner. I have no restriction and can eat a whole can of soup. I have stopped pureeing it and just chew up the vegetables, etc. But, I can eat the whole thing! And then some Popsicles on top of that! I am worried about the amount I am eating. Plus, I don't feel that eating like this is very healthy. I look forward to being able to get back to my south beach diet. I know I will not be able to eat as many vegetables or salads as before. I just wish my fill was sooner than Dec. 1st. I then worry about not feeling any restriction with that first fill. My Doctor is really awesome, so I think he will not be satisfied until I feel restriction. At least that is what I am hoping.

Thank you for the compliment! How are you doing? I went to my post-op appointment Monday. I was down 20lbs then. I weighed this morning and was down another 3 lbs!! So total weight lose from August is 51lbs!!!

Well, you are right! We all "know" what we should be doing! And, I kicked myself in the butt last night. I drank a big protein shake all evening. I was so bloated when I went to bed. This morning when I woke up I was 3 lbs lighter! LOL! If I count the 3 pounds from this morning and everything I lost pre-op. I am down 47 lbs. Have a great weekend and be blessed!

It's going! I am really struggling with the whole liquid thing. I am pretty cranky about it.

How goes it today? I had some of that V8 cream of broccoli soup. It was actually very good. I did add some milk to thin it down and seasoned it up a little more to my taste. But, it was good.

Jenny you were pumped full of SALINE! It's SALT! Hello water retention! It's all water. It will go away! Give it 5 days. Promise!

Hello! How are you doing? Haven't seen any posts lately. I hope everything is good for you.

Yes, two days ago. It totally snuck up on me too.

I got approved really fast and all of a sudden. And, then My Mother asked when I started myprepre-op diet and we realized it was the very next day!

liquid. So, I can have veggies, salad, cottage cheese,lf crackers. And, then the protein drinks.

Ilfot a few different ones to see what I liked. I got some SF Carnation instant breakfasts. They are OK. Not as much protein as the EAS powder I got at Sam's. And, to me they taste just alike. And, then I got some low-carb
