Not really I have been working out a lot

Thank you so much [emoji173]️

Wanted to give a quick update I don’t go on here too often anymore since I’ve had my surgery. I started my journey on February 21, 2017 I have Kaiser insurance, I had to take 3 months of classes. In those 3 Months of classes I lost a total of 58.6 pounds. I ended up having surgery on May 31, 2017 and since surgery I have lost 32.6 pounds. And today I had wonderland feel so awesome to get there. My total loss is 91.2 pounds I have about 34 more pounds to lose. Well I hope everyone is doing good and good luck to all the surgeries that are coming up for everyone[emoji173]️

I am 6 days post op it is going OK like I said it is a learning experience you have to figure out what works for you trying to get the protein in and the water at first was very difficult but now I pretty much have it down I do have my 1st appointment tomorrow with the dietitian and then next week I have my appointment with the surgeon I will keep following on here to see how you're progressing. I do have an a YouTube pageand Instagram page if you'd like to follow me on there you can I cannot figure out how to paste my YouTube information so I'm just gonna screenshot it

Good luck to you Monica I went through Kaiser Bakersfield for my classes and I had surgery on May 31, 2017 doing good it is a Learning process keep posting on here after surgery so we can follow

One thing my insurance company Kaiser Insurance they follow you for 5 years you have a dietitian that you meet with I meet with her for the first time this week 1 week post op if you have any questions about nutrition or anything they are there to help you they do you watch how many protein grams you're taking in and how many calories they do you show you what to eat and what not to eat it is a great program they also have support groups.

I have been getting about 75 g of protein I have been adding Isopure drink it has 40 g of protein I diluted it to my water half Isopure half water that way I'm getting more protein in

Today is my 6 day after having surgery it is hard day 4 I could not get enough water and protein in yesterday day five was good for me I got all my protein in and my water I just took 2 sips every 15 minutes before I ate I waited 30 minutes after I ate I waited 30 minutes as well I've heard it does get easier

Hi everyone I already had my VSG on May 31, 2017 also had to have a hiatal hernia removed I'm still in the hospital hopefully getting out later this afternoon I had an episode yesterday where my throat was closing up and then I ended up having a panic attack so they ended up keeping over night pain is about a 5 haven't had too much gas pain but I ended up getting a migraine finally that's gone and just waiting for the doctor to release me it is very hard to drink your liquids and you're not hungry at all but I guess that will pass.

Yes I am resting now and I will definitely post something as soon as I can

Yes I am ready I have done so much today I mowed my front and backyard which is a half acre I vacuumed my whole house I did four loads of laundry I hosed out my garage I made my Jell-O for when I come home and my pudding.

Yes I had to complete the 12 weeks of class and then the person was on vacation that sent the paperwork over to the surgeon so it took a couple extra weeks

Thank you so much II'm going to have to get up like at 3:30 AM so I can shower and wash my hair and I have to take my son to a friends house so he can get on the school bus unfortunately his school won't be open that early. I can't believe it's finally happening

Thank you so much getting nervous now

I got my time that I need to be at the hospital for tomorrow for my VSG surgery 6:30 AM and the hospital is an hour and 15 minutes from my house so I will be up nice and early tomorrow.

I did talk to my nurse today for my surgery and she said my acrylic nails are fine as long as I have no polish on them which I have French tip

Well it is official my surgery is tomorrow I'm not sure of the time yet I have to call tonight at 6 PM for the time of my surgery I did receive my approval from my insurance company I received a letter today in the mail so it is happening. Getting nervous I already have my hospital bag packed.

Thank you good luck on your journey as well yes I have French tip so I wonder if that will be OK I did call the hospital this morning and they're calling me back

I'm having surgery on Wednesday the 31st and I have acrylic nails my surgeon did not say anything to me about removing them do you think they will be OK for surgery or should I have them removed
