Linda, you are doing so well!! I find that if I eat more protein, even drink a protein supplement mid-morning, and mid-afternoon it greatly curbs the "snacky" feelings. If I eat any carbs or high glycemic foods it only tends to increase my appetite. Stick to high protein snacks that are filling and lots and lots of water. Don't give up....HUGS

Hi Linda! Thank you for your story. As you said, it is so encouraging to read other's experiences. Yours made me laugh and even get a bit teary eyed! I am so glad you were able to have a wls procedure and you are doing so well. Take care! Suellen

Linda, if you get afraid (and who doesn't?) just visualize the future new, healthy, skinny you! Do you have everything you'll need from your postop list? Yippee - baby food, here you come! I'll be rooting for you all next week out here in Denver CO. Let us all know how it goes, the good and the bad - it helps others. Keep the faith. I wish you smooth sailing, Linda!

Linda, best wishes for your upcoming surgery. I had mine last November, and I have never had a single regret. One thing that may help to remember is that the nervousness is over with when you wake up in the recovery room to your new life.
