I'm scheduled for 2/6/14. Who else is getting sleeved in February?

I can have non-starchy veggies on my pre diet. I think that has helped. But I haven't eaten them every day. Did have a nice salad tonight though (lettuce carrots and cucumber with basaltic vinegarette dressing ). It felt like cheating, so good. I had almost forgotten what a fork was..LOL!!!

I did get a little discouraged today because I weighed myself and I am at the same weight I was on Monday when I saw the Dr. I was just thinking man all this dedication to this diet and it hasn't moved since then... I mean I am at 9 pounds but I thought for sure a little more would have came off. I am supposed to start TOM on surgery day so I am not sure if that has any thing to do with it ..... ughhhh

Well in post-op you may gain. I came home six pounds up. All those fluids just hang in your body. I know in a few days it will be gone and I will be feeling better than ever. But I hate seeing those extra lbs on the scale!

You mean you didn't have to drink it through a straw?! SOOO jealous. I am not feeling too much hunger but I am missing food. My mom had the nerve to go out of her way to feed my husband and daughter this morning and of course she cooked bacon and eggs! Wench.

Seriously, I don't know where we would be without the extra help from mom and dad. But the smell was killer. Brought on a mix of nausea and envy. Lol.

As far as a trip goes- I live in New Orleans, ladies. We could meet up here, as well!

Love New Orleans. My bf lived in chalmette for a while. Relatives in Terrytown. I'm definitely down for that!!!!

SuperFab which unflavored protein do you use? I know you've mentioned it before. I have the Bariatric Advantage (I know you can't use that) and I like theirs but its slightly sweet. So I can't mix it with savory things, like that oh so fabulous chicken broth. Lol.

Right now I'm using the unflavored from my bariatric clinic. No actual brand on the tub. Just their clinic name. I've tried a few and about time is my favorite. I have some from Herbalife that I've tried n it's not too bad.

Guys. I cheated tonight. With broccoli. Hahahahaha. It was the best broccoli I've ever had! Even though it was plain and boring.

Ur fucking kidding me!!!! I swear I made garlic shrimp and steamed broc for dinner for everyone. I snagged a small floret. Just a tiny one. It was so fresh and was calling my name.

About time is the brand name? Thanks. I will go looking for it.

I was allowed lean protein and veggies for the first 10 days. Lol

Better then something like pizza or something super fatty and carby. Just be careful with the cruciferous veggies. They can cause major gas which may not be helpful so close to surgery!

I wasn't. But doc did let me have Greek yogurt twice a day because of the antibiotics I was on. That was my life saver! I want some now. Lol.

Hahaha. I ate just a side of it. So not very much. We went to applebees. I got a cup of soup (asked for as much broth and less goodies as I could get) and got got a side of broccoli. I've been craving it SO bad. Hah.
