jakkkk

Started out on May 6th 2014, 394lbs. May 6th 2015, 250lbs. 146 total.

OK, I get it, over weight people are sometimes butthole bandits. Sooooo?

May 6, 2014 0830hrs my life changed. 101 lbs. this morning.

When this started I weighed in at 395, today I am 298. Surgery was May 6th 2014.

Hang in there ladies.

May 6 to today -68lbs. This includes the 10 days pre surgery diet.

@@DaddyMarie, I did weigh 392 but you knew that since you asked before. I am 5'10 56 years old next month. How old are you? If you rather I kept success on the down low I will. You seem a little put off. I will try to be positive about all this. Realizing your post count 419 vs. my 16. I should see where this is headed. Out............

Drink plenty of Water, ice tea, coffee. Cream Soups, sf Jello, sf pudding and Protein shakes. I have had a couple t spoons of baked sweet potato and albacore tuna. I tried a smashed up hard boiled egg once and never again, it was evil. Be careful what you put in your mouth. Including the 10 day pre op liquid diet I am down 54lbs and I was a May 6th sleeve. Be normal, walk and stay on your feet. I am surprised that having read a lot of these threads to see such a wide variety of ways of living/dealing with this issue. Some people ask about back to work in two weeks or three weeks. I was off three days. Some believe that if it fits in a blender and can be liquefied then it is OK to eat. NOT, liquefied meatloaf is not good for you. Be well.

Thank the lord, I was able to drop the kids off at the pool this morning.

I figured it was me, I'll keep knocking on that door and try my best. Poor girl.

I was searching for constipation information since it has been a week since surgery with no joy. Found this thread and I just want to say thanks it worked. Feel much better now. However my wife does not understand how all this works. She has a sore rear end and still cannot go poop. I do not get it either but thanks.

So the poop clock is now turning.

Day 4 post and back to Protein shakes and blended thined cream of broccoli Soup. Ummmm good.Yogurtand applesauce too. Top side working wish I could get the other end to cooperate. No bueno at the tail pipe.

Good job man, no regrets?

Each time I feel a little uneasy or bubble is forming I take two Gas X thin strips. http://www.gas-x.com/gas-relief-products/thin-strips.shtml I take 7/8 through out the day, just put them in your mouth and they melt.

OK, everyone survived?

Done, drink slowly or pay a price.

Yes on that good luck thing!!!!!!!!

Crazy huh? The nutritionist did a double take. I went from 392 to 366, speedo time? Trust me I am not bragging, if losing weight were that easy I would not be here. I could put it back on in about a week. Couple of steaks some lasagna and a 12 pack. hahaha This is the story of my adult life, lose and gain and always more gain than lose. By the way I am trying to make light of this situation as I am a little nervous. Actually little nervous is a gross understatement.

Day 8 of the pre surgery diet and I am down 26 lbs.

@@DaddyMarie, the pounding head will go away. The fruit thing for me is an apple and three or so clementines. Do what your Dr. said to do.

I will be sleeved Tuesday May 6, 2014. Phx Az. Day 4 of a Protein shake only 10 day plan. I can have all the fresh fruit I want. with the four shakes each day
