Wow...what a journey! I remember the dreaded 6 months pre-op and now I am 6 months post-op!
Started at 260 and am now 175. Down 85lbs. About another 30 or so to go! So weird to be only 30lbs away from the end goal. Never in my life....20170327_111918.thumb.jpg.2788287d8b9ca2a7e44b89efd2ce7e47.jpg

Oh my goodness you are doing amazing. Way to go. Can I ask what your normal day looks like with food/drink and exercise if any and how much? I had surgery 7/6/16 269 and am just now at 189. [emoji20]

Wow you guys!! Thanks for all of the wonderful messages! Here are my personal rules i live by now... I dont measure and I dont track but I am good at estimating. I try to drink 1 Protein Shake each day (premier is my fav) and/or eat a Protein Bar while on the go (I am in love with the "oh yeah- one" bars). I drink a ton of Water, sometimes with Crystal-Light. I enjoy a cup of coffee every morning. Any breads, Desserts, or sugary drinks are out the door. I make sure I eat my Protein first but I eat all day long. I enjoy running now and hiking! I excersize almost everyday. Even though I just gained 3 lbs, I went down another size...must be building muscle. [emoji6]

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
