Not real sure I have heard u lose the majority in the first year. A friend of mind is over a year out and she's still losing just more slowly.
-
Totally misread! Thought u said u wanted to lose 150lbs! I bet 6-8 months you can do it
-
I would say more like 8-12 months just remember it took a while to put on. I lost 30 lbs the first 3 weeks. Get a good blender too cause the first 2-3 months everything is blended

Dr Baker usually keeps you in 3 days 2 nights. My worst pain was gas pressure & walking helps! Pain pump was nice as well. To me it's a minimal amount of pain for what we gain

I only weigh once a month to keep from driving myself crazy but as of about a week ago 76 lbs!

I was worried too so I understand. I have bcbs I had to pay about 3 grand and all before surgery. Thankful my husband didn't have a heart attack and just paid it. I had to jump through hoops but it was so worth it! You'll love Courtney she's awesome

Oh and I gained weight before my surgery he wasn't happy and told me I had to get the 7 lbs off I gained before my surgery date which 2 weeks prior your on the protein shakes and you'll lose. I dropped 11 lbs in 6 days

He's a bit odd but really good. Be prepared to get the 3rd degree about your food choice if your not eating right. I love Courtney his physicians assistant. Good luck!!

I had to fight my old habits hard this week. My one true weakness has always been peeps. I could demolish a case of them in a day. I just kept remembering the scale and refused to break! -

If I eat to fast or if something does go down right I have to vomit and I don't care for that so I suggest eating slower and you said you haven't had a bm in a few days that can cause other problems. I take stool softners daily because I was having issue so try that -
I had the same fear but to my surprise they approved me and I'm 4 months post op so good luck!!!

Last week was spring break. We spent the entire week in sunny Southern California. We took the kids to Disneyland and typically I would worry about being able to fit on rides. I even googled what rides an over weight person should avoid. I got in the park and was like forget it I'm doing everything. You know what? I rode everything!!!! Nothing squeezed me or hurt. I fit!!!!!
