I meant to say how pretty you are also! I love you hair, eyes & big smile. Hope that's not creepy? ;/

Hello just wanted to check to see how you are doing. We should be getting close to our 4month post op. How is your Protein intake?

Feeling better as far as energy goes. I find my self eating enough Protein now, but don't have much room for anything more.I notice if I get my fluids in, it helps .e not wanting to eat bad things. I'm a chip girl, Pasta girl.

I'm now down 75lbs from my h.w. which was 301. I'm at 226! My goal is 80 more pounds!

How are you doing?

5 months out' date=' down 99lbs, including pre-op!

HW: 270

SW: 230

CW: 171

Any recommendations for what to do before surgery? Maybe what stock in the pantry? What liquid products did you use?

I wouldn't cuz your taste buds change for sure. Just get the basics of both, Jello, &maybe try some bottles of Isopure Protein? But only buy one or two cuz you may not like it after surgery. Just my opinion. Same goes for the Protein Shakes.< /p>

I was sleeved on 6/24 as well and down 49 lbs. Sounds like we 3 are in the same boat! Cheers to us! I'm at 237 as of yesterday. I still have energy issues & it sucks to eat. I do Protein shakes for Breakfast and a Quest bar for lunch a modified dinner with hubby & son.

Are you taking B 12 shots? Once I started taking those me energy level has skyrocketed

Did you notice the B12 Energy wearing off after a while? I'm back to napping again. I'm taking 2500mcg sublinginal (sp). & have not much energy.

I am so proud of you! How do you feel physically?

Thanks! I had my 3month check up just this past Tuesday & now weigh 232! I'm still sleepy when I get home from work. Not sure why. I upped my B12 to 2500mcg & felt more energy for about a week. Now not so much.

Congrats sister! You are doing awesome! When was your surgery date? Mine was June 24, 2013. I'm exactly 3 months out today & had my check up with my surgeon. Here are my stats.

My heaviest weight recoreded at his office was 287.5 lbs. My highest weight ever & was my "ohhhh to THE helllll no" moment was 301lbs!

Two weeks pre-op weight 282Lbs.

Day if surgery weight 273lbs.

Today I weighed in at 232.0lbs.

So, 51lbs. Since day of surgery.

Here's my pics at 287.5 in purple & todays weight 232 in black.

I've lost 38lbs of fat mass & 17lbs. of muscle mass the dietian said. I'm not really sure how they figure that one out?

That means 55lbs not 51lbs. From the "recorded" weight she wrote down. Anyone understand how they figure that out?!

I wish I could see a bigger difference in my head, but really thrilled to see the numbers going down.

Can't wait to see what the next 3 months brings us.

Continue on your success!

Me in my wedding dress today. Size 16 fits perfect.

You look like that dress was made for you! Stunnning sister! What a dream come true! ♥ the tat with it! Congrats!

Your doing great. Keep up the good work!

Thank you so much for the kind words!

U r doing great! So proud of you!

Here's a couple of my pics. Purple is 286 & black is today 232. So that's 54lbs !! I will be 3 months out this coming Tuesday! Time flies!

U r doing great! So proud of you!

Curious to know how much weight everyone lost the first 4 months after surgery. I start traveling exactly4 months from mine and wonder what I may look like!

I'm 3 months out on September 24th. I've lost 52lbs. 17was the 2 week pre-op diet.

I am having my surgery November 26th. I'm wondering if anyone started their Vitamins ahead of time or did anything else to prepare ? I really want to maximize the weight loss so anything that helps is great!

Yeah, start taking them now. Also look for ones that are liquid or disslove in your mouth. I had a rough time with the nasty taste of crushed pills especially the acid reducers!

I highly recommend getting an Omega fish oil also. Helps with hair loss. They will have you stop taking it 7 days before surgery because its a blood thinner.

I bought a brand called "Brelean's" at Vitamin Shoppe. It's a liquid like yogurt. I got the orange and it tastes like a dreamsicle. My 6 year old picky eater loves it also. No fishy smell or taste.

Take 10000mcg of B12. It will help with your energy FOR sure! I was only doing 500& had no energy. I asked my doc for the shots and she told me to do 1000mcg cuz it's the same. I can totally tell. It took a week to notice though. Those come dissolving also. I got mine at Walmart.

I get the Calcium carmel chews and do them twice a day.

One multi Vitamin & Iron pill a day.

Hope this helps! Good luck.

Thanks for the response. I am taking 2500mcg of B12 and will purchase the Biotin tmrw.

U bet! Good luck!
