Im pre op and having an affair with David :(

So, Ive been trying to get these 32 lbs off for the last 3 months. WELLL, I finally made it, and then some. But my love for David Sunflower seeds has sabotaged my potassium levels. Ive been addicted for over a month now. Im happy to say Im Seed free and met with my case manager today in Richmond Ca (Kaiser) and recieved a June 6th date for my gastric sleeve.. Im so nervous, I thought Id have a good 6 to 8 weeks to process this info, however I have 26 days. Did my pre op blood work and Potassium level are back to normal. Just thought Id share.. Have a great night!!

"Seed free"!!!!!!!!!  That is so funny!  Glad to see you kicked the habit!


Good luck with your surgery!!!!!!

I did kick it, and picked up a new healthier habbit. Jogging/ Speed walking. I do 3 miles a night and jogg 1, I anticipate it every single day. Got on the scale today and lost a whopping 10 lbs in one week. My case manager drilled me hard. She wanted to know every single bit of food I ate this week,It was like a serious interrogation. Kaiser (northern) is serious about their Nutrition. Thats probably why their process is so smooth and quick. lol.

My gosh, me too.....but I prefer his pumpkin seeds. They're a little bigger!

Is the potassium problems related to the saltiness of the seeds?

Yes, it was the problem. My labs are back to normal, now that ive kicked the habbit..lol. Ohh the pumkin seeds are wonderful..lol. Havent had them in about 2 yrs now.
