I have heard that it is 3 months out when you will have the biggest loss.
Only advise I have is to vary calories from day to day. It can trick your body and make it use reserve fuel.
Never give up, never surrender

Just got done with the class, we had a huge class and it took 6 hours. They also made me go see .y PCP for sleep issues.

Had pre-op bootcamp today. Xrays, bloodwork, education, etc.
But when I came in I had a 5 lb weight gain and my left leg is swollen (normal for me) but my Water pills are not pulling Fluid like normal and I am not sure if it is due to lack of sleep. Since they gave me my surgery date, I cannot sleep but 10-20 minutes at a time.
Going to see my pcp at 3...just frustrated.

Try not to let it bum you out. Just think of the extra weight loss from the pre-op diet as a bonus for your dedication and hard work and allow yourself a cheat meal or item or a movie. But treat yourself somehow.
Praying for you.

I say buy what you love, not what you are told by someone else. Otherwise, you end up with 2 things in your closet that you wear out, because the rest of the stuff in there isn't you.

My doctor requires it. It let's them know if you are a candidate for certain weight loss surgical procedures, it can show ulcers, let them see acid reflux, etc. Plus they do a biopsy.

What did you bring to the hospital?
Is there anything that you bought for home use that made you recovery better?
Thanks in advance.

Tiny freak out moment

Alfred,
My surgery date is the 26th. When they called me to give me the date, I honestly was not excited it was more apathetic, or so I thought. You are right up until now it has been academic. Anyway, up until yesterday I did not sleep but 10 to 20 minutes at a time. I was in tears at my appointment yesterday just from lack of sleep. My NP said that even though I am not conciously aware of it, I am obviously anxious about the surgery. So she prescribed me an anxiety medication that is also for insomnia. It worked, yay! I was able to get a full night last night and only woke up once.
I would discuss what is bothering you with your pcp. They may be able to help with the anxiety.
Hope this helped a little, you aren't alone.
Never give up, never surrender
