Month 2 ..surgery on March 20th ❤️



Recommended Posts

Two month appointment was on May 21st . Weight loss from March 20th (day of surgery ) ..30lbs

Weight loss from April to May 4lbs

Although 4lbs is not much I've lost a pant and shirt size.????

My Dr says that Im going through a stall which is pretty common several weeks after surgery and that I need to up my Water intake ..so I've been drowning myself in Water since then and have lost another 2lbs since May 21st ???? . I didn't realize how important water was and that just drinking 40oz a day isn't enough ..I'm up to 120oz a day now .

I'm still sticking to 30 carbs a day ..mainly eat Protein foods and some dark European chocolate .

I've included a progress picture although it's not a big change but any change is a good change ????

You're doing great. Take it easy on the chocolate. Not every day I hope. Most rapid weight loss is in the beginning. Yes it's normal to have a small gain a month out when new foods are added. But stay compliant and you will have great success. You look beautiful!

Good for you, I see a change! You look great. Keep up the good work and I will try to slowly up my Water too. I am still on mushy/purée foods and down 17 lbs. since I started pre-op diet. Looking good for the summer months is exciting ????

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
