Hi I'm new to this site. 1 month out. Very happy with this decision. For the first time that I can remember, I actually know what it feels like to be full and satisfied. Protein first. I'm on soft foods now and not in any hurry to progress. I had a stall at 3 weeks, increased my protein and fluids and scaled moved again. First time in years I'm below 300 in years!. I'm logging my food and journaling. Bariastic is my favorite app. I'm glad to be here. thank you.
 
Welcome to the group. I have not had my surgery yet. It is waiting to be scheduled my therapist is making sure I don't fail the phyc eval. But I am glad you are happy about your decision and I am proud you are losing so well. Hope to hear some more good news soon

Hi Special- Tomorrow is my one week anniversary. I like your style...not in any hurry to get back to the grown up food. I get that. I feel the same way. Food and me have to break it off for now.
 
Thanks. It is coming fast. I go to my therapist this coming Wednesday and then she will get the appointment set up. I am hoping to get it done soon that way I do not miss any beach time with my boys. Beach time with the kids is the best. But someone has to keep a close eye on my 5 year old because he is not scared of the water at all.

Hi Mamabear- How did your psych evaluation go? Mine took longer than I thought it would. Most of it was a written test. You're getting closer!
 
I had to just go to my therapist today but she has set the date for my eval now I go on the 11th to do the eval they are having trouble with my insurance to pass the time frame stuff for the test. But they are going to try to get it done quickly. They want me to ask for a surgery date tomorrow. So I guess I have some thing to get done tomorrow. Thanks for asking. But I did leave the appointment feeling good. I lost another 7lbs this week and I have my eval set up. So I am getting closer. But then my mood was wrecked by my husband argueing with me.

how long did it take you on your writen part. Because the good thing about going through my doctors office is that they are answering most of the asked questions already. I basically got to do the written test part only.
 
Hi I’m Jess , I’m new to site and try to get some support( (meet some new people who are going though the same issue) and my first issue is with food choices or lack of I should say, I’m 1 1/2 months into post-op, I feel really go but I think support can be the key to success....
 
jessie524 support is always the key. And the best thing is we understand you better because most of us has had the surgery already and some is about to have it. You can ask some of the ones that has been through this already to share recipes if you are getting bored of the normal. You got to ask by stage because like I said so people are years out. But welcome to the group and I hope to hear more about you and your success.
