  1. Ok so I started the process on January 26. Had my first EGD done and then started my pre op diet so I would be ready after the results came in. The week before my surgery my results came back with some disorder that I could not have the surgery. I was insistent that something could be done. So I was put on high dose nexium for 30 days and then a second EGD was done. It showed I was healing so I was cleared! The whole time I stayed on a kind of diet so I could avoid stomach acid flare up. Finally I got a date but it was still 3 weeks away. But I stuck to it. And when the surgery date came my surgeon Had not seen me in almost 90 days. When he saw I lost 30 pounds on my own he said I would be great after surgery. It has been a bitch but I have lost 70 pounds total. Starting weight 372 Surgery date 4/25/16 Weight 339 Today 6/25/16 weight 302 I am 8 weeks post op. So I still weigh my food. Drink my Protein. Don't eat 30 before or after. 5xl shirt down to 3 XL shirt Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Push up

    If you lift to early you have a high chance of opening a staple line. Just walk as much as you can every day. The weight training will come. But don't go heavy at the start. Your new friend isn't healed even at 8 weeks post op Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
