I finally told my kids' date=' my son is so positive and supportive my daughter feels like I should try another diet this will be a life change. I have issues with my health insurance from work. Pretty much they have told me do something drastic to bring down your BMI under 40 or you will not be able to afford the insurance or they might drop you. Because of 2014 Obamacare, I was very sick last year with a brain aneurysm, the insurance thinks it was because of being over weight. I think it was from taking 1600 Motrin and I have always had low blood pressure. Oh well, my surgery is scheduled for Sept 4th. UGH I am scared.[/quote']

I'm thinking of you and wish you the best.

I'm curious, because I see people blame everything on Obamacare and it just befuddles me. You got sick because of Obamacare? The insurance wouldn't have thought you would have gotten a brain aneurysm if you weren't overweight without Obamacare in place?

Is your surgery on the 4th, like mine? I sure am glad my doctor doesn't require that kind of pre-surgery diet! I just have to do three days with a couple of Protein Shakes, some Protein Snacks, and a dinner of 6 oz lean poultry or fish and 2 cups of salad greens with fat free vinaigrette. Then fast after midnight the night before surgery. Anyway, my sympathies. It is cruel and unusual punishment to make you do Clear Liquids before surgery when you still have your appetite!

I did that today. Not nearly as bad as I expected. Of course I started the magnesium citrate at noon, so eating wasn't all that appealing. All I could get down today was 1 clear Protein Shake, a bowl of broth, and a sf popsicle.

You'll get through. It's just one more sign the surgery is right around the corner : )

Not even clear Protein here. Sf Popsicles, sf Jello, and broth! Yes the 4th for me. 38 hour in fact!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
