Update 270lb

*always wanting to eat* typo

Has it gotten any better?

Gotcha. I haven’t experienced much pain so I’m not on any pain meds. So my mind is really playing on me. It’s not that i be hungry, it’s jus my old habits of always waiting to eat that kicks in. So I’m def using this time to break this addiction to food. I have no choice 🤣🤣[emoji23]

This is when i was on the liquid diet pre op.. (referring to the original post) I’m 5 days post. Haven’t started exercising yet other than walking around. I did some light shopping today so those steps count. I’m 6lbs down jus off of clear/liquid diet post op phase.

I am 5 days out and the first week is not easy. It’s very mental. I’m noticing how my MIND tries to trick me to make me think i want these foods but i don’t give in to it. I’ve had plenty of breakdowns to my support system about how I’m ready to chew somethin. It’s def mental, far from easy because it’s new (atleast for me).

Stick to the diet and hit the gym that’s how i made my goal within a short time. I really pushed myself on the treadmill and water aerobics for like 45 mins

I confess: i am over this liquid phase. I love food. I can’t wait to eat “moderately”. I’m excited to start exercising, surprisingly. I jus want a chicken wing and some a slice of pizza lol

I’m 2 days post op and i jus wanna lick the sauce on a pizza. I feel like I’m an addict that’s in rehab for an drug addiction. Guess food was my addiction. I’m def havin withdrawal feelings like I’m missin my drug. But i know it’s for the greater good of my health why i chose to break this addiction. Goodbye Binge eating! Goodbye Emotional eating! I’m excited to have a protein shake tomorrow [emoji51]

12/6 update 280lb

Still in hospital waiting to be discharged. I’m actually feeling great. I’ve been walking around, the pain is minimal. I’m off IV and compressions. I can actually say it’s much better than yesterday! Right now I’m sippin on some delicious water! Lol

It’s a blessing to be on this side of the post. Surgery was Dec 4th and it was a success. I look forward to reading and expecting what’s to come! Congrats to all who jus recently made the transition from pre to post op as well!!

Otw to the hospital now! I’m excited!! Good luck!
