  1. Surgery date January 7, in San Antonio, Tx
  2. Everyone is looking magnificent!!! Great job!!!! I, myself am down 54 lbs.... Feeling great and taking it one day at a time!!!
  3. I didn't do pre op diet. I was scheduled to have surgery on the 21st of January and I was starting college on the 13th, so I declined surgery date. I did not want to encounter any complications after surgery and have to miss class, since I'm in my final semester. I spoke with doctor and he advised that I would not do pre op diet, and just have surgery on the 7th

  10. It was an awesome feeling!!! Have to say that I have encountered very little problems, just very frustrated with protein drinks and that I cannot have anything else. I'm waiting on phase 2 so I can start the purée foods, if anyone may please share some good purée recipes, I would greatly appreciate it.
  11. I saw doctor yesterday for 1st follow up after surgery. It was an awesome day!!! 18 lbs lighter 8 days after surgery!! Boy, is that a motivator!!!!!

  15. I will have to try that!!!
  16. Today is day 4 post op. Doing pretty good. Not too too bloated, but still feeling a little. I need some ideas on some protein shakes, or just something to drink. These drinks, and texture are getting old pretty quick. Would love any thoughts, and/or ideas
  17. Sounds great!!! I will definitely look into that

  19. That protein shake sounds pretty darn good. Where can I get me some of that? I'm only having that bland chocolate flavored drink and it's time for a change!!
  20. Congratulations!!! So glad to hear your doing well. Today is 2 days post op for me and feeling bloated throughout the day. I am not getting hungry at all, but manage to eat a little something now and then throughout the day. Doing broth with a protein drink, in conjunction with some flavored water. Feeling a little discomfort from largest incision, but pain is very minimal...
