My experience has been super smooth ???? at every new stage, I progressed exactly as I was supposed to, tolerated everything I tried. I of course followed every rule to the letter, I used my Eat Slower app and chewed every bite 20-30 times and no drinks 30 mins before, during or after ???? I've had chicken give me trouble one time, but it was after many times of eating it with no issues. My partner put a little to much spice on it, hence the dumping. And my advice to you is, as soon as you feel that I'm full feeling, or a heaviness in stomach, no matter what, don't eat another bite. No matter how far into your meal you are in STOP EATING. It will make you throw up. Trust me ???? and some days I get more in than others. And yes I've wasted food, but hey I'm buying way less at store than before. Any other questions please ask ????

Just had to share my progress pics.. It's been awhile since I've done that!! the top left picture is day one of pre-op diet and same for picture underneath.. Second picture on top is one month after surgery June 5th, same date underneath, and last picture on top right is January 26th 2016.. I feel so much better and can't believe the amazing progress I've made.. I went from a 4x shirt to a medium.. And 52 waist to a 34.. Crazy isn't it... I hope everyone else is having such great success..

I was going to go to Dr. Vollenger but was able to get into Carolina sooner.. My good friend is waiting for his approval for Dr V right now.. I didn't have to do 6 month diet. It's good for fast approval, but crazy without any beforehand knowledge to prep myself.. Obviously I'm researching for myself lol ???? good luck on your journey..

I'm still pre-op I'm going through Carolinas weight management. I'm still getting all of my testing done. Everything should be done appointment wise at end of this month.. How about you?

I'm confused, how in the world did a post from 2003 pop up on this board I started last year?

The first pic on top left is first day pre-op diet April 22nd and second picture on top row is one month after surgery June 5th and last picture on top right is January 26th 2016.. And bottom is exactly the same dates as their picture above..

Hey May Peeps ???? just stopping by to show a picture of me the day I hit 199lbs (which was the other day)...
Almost 9 months ago, I would have never believed it would have happened so fast... I hope you all are having as much success.

@@Salonboi I had gastric bypass on Oct 1st, 2015... I was about 425 before the 2-week preop liquid diet and was down to 404 lbs the morning of surgery. So about 100lbs lost since the morning of surgery 4 months ago. Doing well, still losing, but it's starting to slow I think. Wife and I went to Boston earlier this month for a hockey tournament for my son... didn't lose anything over those 5 days. There was a whole foods across the street from the hotel, so most meals we swung by there and I'd get 3/4 to a cup of salad or their premade cold salad... I have a feeling the premade salads were a little heavy on fat/sugar and thus calories. Anyhow, since then things have been much more routine, and the scale has been moving slightly again. I think this next week is when I'm going to start with the strength training to hopefully maintain any of my muscle mass and increase my metabolism.

Congratulations! Awesome accomplishment!!!

Congrats! Those pictures are awesome. My weight loss slowed and stopped, mainly because I got addicted to nuts and Peanut Butter. However, I'm back on track and loosing 1-2 lbs a day now. Lost 156 lbs in less than 9 months and should be in my 100s in a few weeks. I'm crossing my fingers I will be at goal by my 1 year anniversary. Keep us updated!
