Hey all, nice job! I had my surgery 7/7/14 and lost a total of 42lbs since preop (18 preop and 24 since surgery)!!! We started this journey and we will eventually get to our goal!!!

Hi DL, I just had my surgery 7/7/14. Started my Puréed diet!! Noticed ur spread sheet is popular, can I also have it emailed to me: jaysweet98@hotmail.com! I will also like to knw how u are doing since ur surgery. I like to hear about others progress for motivation. Thanks in advance!!!

<p>Hello Everyone,</p> <p> Just an update, I'm doing well (surgery 7/11/14). No complications so far. My eating habits have changed drastically. Going out to eat has been fairly easy, my partner enjoys the smaller eating tabs. Eating smaller portions makes it light on his pocket (lol). I walk at least 30 min a day and have added some Hip-Hop Abs to my exercise routine but taking it slow. I am not very concerned at this point with the pounds I've lost because the difference in showing in my clothes. I have been able to wear some pants that I could not wear in April and that's a plus. I have purchased some skirts that I can take up but I refuse to buy any clothes until I have reached my 90 day make.</p> <p> </p> <p>Wishing all much success.</p>

Sounds good, my surgery was 7/7/14... Ur doing great!! What are u eating when u go out!!!! I'm still on full liquid/puréed diet!!! Started some refrird Beans yesterday, haha and tuna today!!!! Good luck with ur journey, love to hear good news from my fellow losers!!!

Hey branstuff, sounds like ur recovering well!!! It's hard to get those cals in but as long as the fluids and Protein is getting in than ur fine!!!! I find it hard to get those 2 in but my intake is getting better!!! Good luck and may I ask what type of Protein Shake ur taking????

I don't know how we're supposed to drink 60 mg of Protein. Takes me a day to drink 11oz of 30g protein drink. And Water too???

I feel u, I'm having a hard time getting my protein in too!!! Tired of those shakes and we have to at least drink 32oz of water a day!!!! Totally possible but 1 sip every 5 min and u have to wait 30-60 min before eating a meal after drinking!!! Well we can complain but it will help us succeed!! We can do it!!! Can't wait until this last week of liquids is over (3weeks post surgery) then next 3 weeks of puréed!!!!! Keep at it y'all!!!

Splurge on angryviking and goodluck with surgery!!! But the best news ever is I'm going home!!! Hell yeah!!! Thanks for any prayers and motivation sent this way I totally appreciate it!!!

Thanks lilmsdiva, I'm glad ur surgery went well, hope for a speedy recovery!!! I'm still at hospital, all test look good, just waiting for my blood levels to come back!!! As long as those are fine, I'm going home!!! I have dry heaving but no vomiting and just crampy like pain!!! Tolerable no meds needed!!! Can't wait to see my 3 girls!!!!!

Thanks, can't wait until then!!?

@ lil ms diva... Thanks, still at the hospital, had a lil setback. I guess where they attached the stomach to the intestine (suture line) it was bleeding and formed a clot. So I was vomiting blood, got a blood transfusion too. Feeling better, walking the halls and burping like a frat boy. I had a neighbor who also got the bypass and recovered without issues!!! So it's just different for everyone. Hope I didn't scare anyone, get to go home tomorrow (fingers crossed) and goodluck to those who are having surgery soon!!!

<p>Good Luck jaysweet98, you are going to do great.</p>

Tomorrow is the big day! Good luck to all my hlsurgery buddies, the 7th is finally here!!!! Time flies!!! Can wait hear how it all went and wish u all a speedy recovery!! Will keep ya posted on my status!!!

<p>Hello Everyone-</p> <p>I had my revision from sleeve to bypass on the 2nd of July. Good luck to all.</p>
