May the 20th for me, and I'm so ready for this. I am using the opti fast and I like the straw berry I like whip it in the ninja blender and partially freeze it the whip it again, it's such a great smoothly.

I've also whipped up pumpkin smoothies and when I have the Soup I use cold Water chuck a hand full of veggies fresh or frozen and whip it up the heat it in the microwave.

But all I can think about is creamy curried eggs

Today is a big day - not only starting the pre-op diet but am exactly two weeks away till surgery date... It seems so weird. trying for so long with such a hard battle with always nothing but disappointment to now having a real tool where I can really see that I will have success. After what seems like my whole life struggling against the weight to have this tool so close now is amazing... There is a light at the end of the tunnel...where before there was always darkness.... Besides to wanting to feel and move better, I have never had a little black dress and really am looking forward to the day when I can go shop for one.. Wow won't that be something......I can't wait!!!!!

Weird night for me as well. I want the same , I've been through so much waiting for this day. Whatsoever I find myself very emotional, like I'm saying goodbye to my old self . I don't know what's going on , my surgery date is 5/28. I'm a bit scared too. Good lunch be blessed I wish that all of your dreams come true

Sounds like you met the requirements. Maybe check with your surgeons insurance rep. I got my approval prior to starting the program.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
