Hey, BG. I've got a friend who's following you on your other blog. Her name is Nicole Negvesky and she is really discouraged right now and may need a follower on her blog. The address is: Confessions of a Plus Size Girl in a Size Two World . If you get a chance look her up and give her some encouragement--she doesn't have the band but is considering it. Thanks a million!!!

OOOWWWW!!! I know!!!! I'm the same. BUT I could FINALLY eat some refried beans tonight!! Haven't thrown up for almost 12 hours now, so that's good right? Tomorrow is supposed to be my first day on "regular food"....pardon me while I gafaw!!! AS IF I could eat regular food tomorrow!! ) But no more scrambled eggs for me! I'm not going to even try mushies or anything but Starbucks tomorrow morning until about 11:00a.m. And defitely doing refried beans reruns again. ) Have you gotten the chewable Papaya Enzyme tablets??? They are a life-saver for me the last couple of days...REALLY helps the stuck feeling! I feel like a dog with a shock collar on!!! I am scared to death to try anything. I've learned to not take a bite when people are around!! Everyone at work is secretly talking that they think I'm pregnant. ha hahaha.......................ouch.

Can you eat yet????

Hey, Sarah....

About "breaking a carb addiction" I find that if I get really strict with carbs (limit to only 50/day) and if I can survive the first three days of hell, that I feel suddenly free of any cravings for sugar, bread, and all carbs for that matter. South Beach diet advocates two strict weeks to break this addiction. I find it doesn't take quite that long, but you can really get in the zone in two weeks.

Best of luck to you!!!!!

So---You're drinking carbonated bevgs??? I have never been a diet soda kindof girl...why do that if you can have Mountain Dew, right? So--I have pretty much sworn off all carbonation--but would like a glass of wine here and there down the road.

I KNOW! I could never burp either!!! And now it is just horrible--first day back to work today and I'm hiding in my office trying not to let the other people hear me BURPING and TOOTING my way thru the day! )

Yeah, I know, right?!? I think I am going to start seeing a different PCP!!! Common sense doesn't seem to be a real strong point with this one. I should have refused it and keep kicking myself for not, but oh well.

You are looking GREAT in your pictures! What a big difference already!!!

Ok, I have a question!!? Have you stopped burping yet? I am burping ALL THE TIME and it is driving me up the wall! ) Does it stop??

I have my PREOP appointment on June 2nd (next Tuesday)...my surgeon told me that with low BMI people, he usually prescribes a 1 week liquid or Lo-carb diet to shrink the liver. Pretty vague...I will find out Tuesday what my fate is!!

I am SOOO glad to find someone on here who is the same as me!!! Great about losing a whole size!! I am in 14s, but they are struggling to keep it all in!! ) I refuse to buy 16s with the surgery so close, although I SHOULD be in them right now.

I am getting really excited!!!! There IS a bright future!!!!
