Why would we need a Facebook page when we can do the same thing on this forum?

I wouldn't mind doing the facebook page. I think it would make keeping in touch easier as well as sharing photos keep me posted

Is anybody else out there STARVING!!!' date=' i had to stop with the Atkins Protein Drinks as they were milk based and i think i am lactose intolerant/ I also switched from Gummy vit to liquid to see if that helps and i bought some gas x, the new Protein I am trying to GNC Lean. I am still having pain on the left side and the only thing that takes the pain away is to lay in child pray pose.

Also I had made a comment about starting a Facebook page it would be CLOSED GROUP, so that we would be the only one in the group, that way we could all keep in touch and post pic, express how we feel and how we are doing.. how many people on here would be interested? and would you want to kept just for "sept members only"?i know alot of us have jobs that search FB so i dont want to assume everyone would want to join this..

hope everyone is well, god bless and have a great weekend and anyone going to surgery good luck and prayers..[/quote']

Yes. I would love a facebook group. It would be much easier and more enjoyable for me. I'm starving. Ladt 48 hrs until surgery. I'm on Clear Liquids. Soooooo hungry!

Fb pg is a great idea. It is a little easier to use then the forum since most of us are more familiar with it, and if im not mistaken there are procedures we can follow to make it completely private except to those that are part of it.

There Michele I fixed your user name. I admit I did the list yesterday on drugs lol.

I personally like the idea of a Facebook group and I love this support site maybe once we all have surgery and establish a core group we can make the fb page to keep in touch in addition to here. I know you all want videos and pics and info about my grandson ( he is the cutest 18 month old evaaaaaaa)

Hi Everyone' date=' this is cksauve (Kerry) I had surgery on the 12th, so 9 days post op? Sorry I havent posted anything. I weighed in at 207 that morning. The worst of it all for me was the nausea, it was awful! I wanted to cry!! I was like, what have I done, I am not cut out for this!! They let me go on Friday evening, after hanging a 6 hour long IV bag, since my phosphorous was low? I was like what?!? So far so good being home, I just miss food so bad. My husband and boys eat whatever they want and it all looks and smells so good. I know my body wont take it, but i still have to say that I miss it so bad. I just cant wait to be on normal food again. So sick of cream of wheat, broth, jellos, yogurts, strained creamed Soups. I cant go to the next phase (pureed) until next Wed, 9/26 and my 40th Birthday is on Tues, 9/25!! Its going to be so hard not to Celebrate at my favorite restaurants, eat my favorite foods or have any cake or ice cream. :( You dont realize how much your life is food until something like this happens and you cant have anything. I just keep thinking ahead of the good life and to meeting all my goals and being thin, healthy, and happier! It helps, but its still hard. I know all my support buddies will understand. It feels good to vent. :wub:

Im sooooooooooo very sorry to hear about you Isla, I was thinking of you and Lydia alot that day. I know you have heard it before, but things happen for a reason and you never know if we would have totally lost you that day, ya know? Another day will come and you will be ready and stronger and its going to go great!! Please keep me posted, How is that other buddy, Lydia doing of mine?

Thanks to everyone for the prayers and support!! You all are the only people that understand!![/quote']

I completely feel the same way you do my husband and my children eat pizza , steak, ice cream, donuts and I just want to scream I know that sounds horrible and they try to eat it away from me. But I can still smell it even though I know all this food got me to where I am today so I just eat my Jello and cry this truly is the hardest thing have ever done in my life. So many people say this is the easy way out but I cannot see how. It's truly forces you to make better choices or you'll be sick ..

Thanks let me vent 2

Do any of you have babies? I'm starting to wonder how crazy I was to do this with a 9 month old. I am going to have help with him, but not picking him up for at least two weeks sure sounds rough on the both of us. My surgery is Tuesday. I'm excited, anxious, scared. I only had to do a 4 day liquid diet. Today is number 3. It hasn't been as hard as I thought. It is weird how often I catch myself automatically thinking of eating something and I have to remind myself not to eat it.

      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.
