Hello everybody I have not posted on here for while but I thought this might be some motivation for people that are struggling. I weight . 276 at the hospital on 2/29 now in with 175! It's been a crazy journey but it has changed my life. Here's some pictures Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App

I am craving a salad so badly right now. I'm 5 weeks post op. When can I have it?? With protein of course.

It made my menstrual cycle worse. I've had my period for a month now since surgery

1.5 hours for me

Thank you guys. They didn't mention anything about drinking more but I think it would be a wise choice for me to just to cleanse things out.

That's the first place I lost weight. Went from 8.5 w to 8 regular

So went to the ER last night, and found I have a kidney infection. Luckily I caught it right when it spread to the kidney from the bladder so no serious damage. I got CAT scan and they said there is no leak in my stomach so that's not what caused it. Just a weakened immune system from the surgery. Just when I was starting to feel better

Thank you!

Yes. I started the process in January and got the surgery on 2/29. 35 pounds down!

Everything went super easy with BCBS RI. I didn't even have to have 6 months of class, or recorded weight loss. I was amazed at the process.

The first time It really sunk in when I was doing ballroom dancing with my crush in 8th grade. My crush said "you would be really pretty if you just lost some weight" I was so mad I stopped dancing with him and sat down for the rest of the lesson. I think I was only 15 pounds over weight at the time too.

Like my surgeon said the liquid diet is the hardest part of this process. Once you get over it will be much easier. G2 blue also helped me alot

Good luck on your upcoming surgery. Enjoy the time you have with solids right now (if your can).

Thanks everybody
