Hi, I had the surgery aug 18th 4 mo ago. I have been learning many lessons and do not regret my decision. But there are many realities you must face to be successful and to overcome them one by one. Having the surgery gives you a great head start, you lose a significant amount right away, which leaves you feeling very positive, esp with all the applause of friends and acquaintances. But after you navigate your post surgery diet , and everything is healing fine, there are other battles to consider, my main one is realizing , for me at least, I can eat and tolerate almost all food. So 60+ years of bad habits are still lurking in the background just waiting to rear their ugly head. So to make this short and concise, this is where I am today.
no snacking, I mean, nibbling snacking. even if it is good for you. eat at specified times, even your snacks.
I am staying on my very low carb, pre surgery diet, only vegs and fruits for carbs, very minimal bread( I use one slice under my poached eggs.)
I can eat whatever I want now, but I got this big for a reason, and it was by not taking 1 lb seriously. One lb, = 1 lb of butter, that is significant, gaining that volume is not to be ignored
So as I continue this journey I have a good 60-80 lbs to go, but I am going to be in control of my addiction and not let it control me. Everyone has issues contributing to our weight problems, so learn to be honest with yourself, attack them one at a time. and Good Luck!!

Great Job, I am surprised too how quickly the weight starts coming off during the pre-op phase. Remember to drink your fluids.

Thank you. Honestly, day 1 - 3 I was going mad. I wanted food and I had to drink a lot of water, soup and protein shakes to keep my mind off of things. Eventually, it got easier. Now I do not realize that I want food. I look at it and I think of the long run. I do not think I have ever been this full in my life lol.
