That is great. 
Good luck to you.

I will getting my VSG on June 22nd! Woot woot!

I am still losing weight and feeling good about myself but its slowing down and the reason is I had gastric bypass and can still eat sugar (cookies, breads, anything I WANT, but everything I should be AVOIDING). I was asked why I have been eating the bad stuff (even tho its been only a couple of times and rare) and I just dont know. Because I can sounds dumb and because I have no other coping skill while Im this stressed is just a poor excuse. I was told to move forward and forget it and stop beating myself up. Im just getting more depressed. They are making me do cognitive behavioral therapy and I feel like a failure because of it. Plus i forget my vitamins all the time and I just cant find a balance. Its overwhelming and frstrating and I dunno why this makes me so upset!

Not to mention I am mourning the loss of my clothing which is dumb. I should feel great Im not huge anymore but I just feel like Im stuck in sweats and like 2 pairs of jeans I just bought that are now loose. OY! Sorry to vent. :/

I know what you mean.  But, I can honestly say that the entire program is great and they ALL work so close together.  On surgery day, you will a HUGE team of people with you so don't worry that he'll be going at it alone.  I think one of the other surgeons was in the OR when I had surgery in addition to a few surgical fellows.  Good luck!

Congratulations. Almost there!  I'm not sure if yours is the same but I was allowed to have jello, decaf tea, non sweetened applesauce and sugar free popsicles.  It got easier as time went on and as long as I didn't go out and watch other people eat!  It was a tough few weeks and I didn't do much but it flew by!  And I lost 20 pounds!  Just keep in mind what you want!  I do the gold standard chocolate protein shakes and they taste pretty good.
