almost 3 months post-op

Well I am almost 3 months post op and I have just hit the 30lb mark. (Much slower than I had expected) I go for my third fill August 9th. I hope to get some restriction.

10 days Post-Op

10 days post op and I am down a total of 21 lbs since I started the pre-op diet. I have had gas really bad up til today, so I am hoping and praying it is gone!

Even went walking last night with my dogs and hubby!

My husband was great, during the surgery process and I will say it is nice to have s

Liquid Diet

Well on day three of the pre-op diet and I have to say it is not as bad as I thought it would be. Tomorrow, I go for CBC, BMP, CXR, UGI and EKG. Ready to get past the surgery and on to the weight loss! I can tell I have lost weight already but I am NOT going not going to weigh again until surgery day!:biggrin:
