February/March 2014 sleevers

I'm so excited to be this close to surgery. I don't have a date yet. I go back to the surgeon on Jan. 8, 2014. I expect we will set a date then (hopefully). January 29 ends the 3 month "diet" period. So I think I'm looking at surgery in February. :)

Omg. I feel like I'd be so torn on that. Yes go out on a high (food coma) note, or be a food kid and follow my diet... Oh god. The angel and devil on my shoulder would have a good fight about that!!

And I cooked dinner! My meatloaf. I had a few bites but didn't have a full meal. A few bites of meat, then yogurt and a shake. I know I will overdo it if I give in.

What's crazy is that now that I'm detoxes of sugar, caffein and carbs I'd be leery of having them again Bc of the dang headaches. They were bad. It was such a sickening headache. But I'd have prolly had a huge steak. Lol

I'm so proud. And F if meatloaf doesn't sound like the best thing on the planet. My dad never made me it one last time.. I'm gonna have to have him try turkey meat for me sometime. (He makes the best meatloaf. I won't even bother lol)

That also went through my mind. Those headaches were awful!!! No. Thank. You.

I'm still absolutely shocked I never got a "detox" headache.

I'm at the 35.1 BMI and just eat what I want till surgery. People say you can't have this in the future. I tell them w/in a yr I can have anything if I want it but it will be in much smaller quantities if I will even want them. Food is what got me to this size and I sure don't want to get back to this weight ever again.

1 wk from tonight it will be all over and I'll be on the road to a healthy weight. Yahoo!!!!!

Remember when I was telling u about mine? It was like the first 2 or3 days. You were feeling good and I was fighting the dang headaches.

I'm also at 35 BMI. Haha. It's a funny place to be in the bariatric surgery world.

But... If the food is what got you here in the first place, why would you want to eat it even in small portions???

Hi Sherry, we've been daydreaming about food. And alcohol.

I had unrelenting headaches for four days. Ugh.

Yes. I think it's another reason I was paranoid I was doing this diet wrong. Lol. It's just been so "easy!"

:( that sucks! I had one yesterday, but I don't think it had anything to do with detox/this diet.

I'm gonna try my hardest to change from my old eating patterns. From pre-op diet on. When I said goodbye to pastas and breads and potatoes and fast food and fried foods... I meant it. My nutritionist says for long-term, sustained weightloss that I need to walk away. So I am.

Those caffeine headaches are horrible. Glad I'm over all of it. I gave up the diet coke and it wasn't as hard as I thought it'd be considering I drank it for decades. . I guess I want to be a healthy weight more than I want carbonation. I will be glad when all this is over. Pre-op jitters seem to pop up at different times.
