I am on my last day of preop. I cant believe I will have made it 15 days with no "food."

I go in at 4:30am. I hope to br home by 4pm. I am ready to get the healing started.

I am 8 weeks Post op today. Feeling great, with absolutely no problems to report. I have progressed through food to the point where I am able to even eat steak. I chew it really well, and only eat about 2oz. My last food to conquer is raw veggies, which I just got cleared for this week. I see a salad in my near future!
I started my workout program this past weekend, and I have to say that being almost 50lbs lighter made it easier to get through. I do the BeachBody programs. Right now I started over with the 21 Day Fix workouts, and some of them are pretty intense. Even though the workouts are still difficult, I noticed hat I don't get as winded as I used to. Also, I track my heart rate when I workout, and before losing weight, I would max out at 180bpm. Now my max is more around 157. Not a bad improvement for just 8 weeks post op!
I am eating about 800 - 1100 calories a day. I had stopped drinking my Protein Shakes because I was getting all of my Protein requirements s from real food. However, now that I have started working out again, I drink one in the morning. I get up at 4am to workout before work, so not many other options for Breakfast at that time of day. It takes all my energy to drag myself to workout, much less figuring out a breakfast to fuel my body.
I am just pushing to get under 200 right now, and then I will focus on the rest. I donated 2 big bags of clothes this weekend. BEST FEELING EVER!! I dumped those bags in the donation bin and walked away like a BOSS! Great to know I will never need that size again!!
HW - 255

Good luck!

I'm currently on day 9 of my liquid diet and would kill for 2 wings. Just sayin'.

I was wondering what people saw for the first month/second month weight loss. I see a lot of amazing stories after 8 month, a year etc. it is very hard to be at the beginning of this journey. I am working so hard and following the diet but I am still large. I would really like to here what some people saw and how they got through the slow points. Thanks!

The pre-op diet is all the bowel prep you need.

When you stop being afraid to put your jeans in the dryer.

I am on day 7. I started 1 day early.

I get sleeved next Monday.

I have lost 13lbs so far.

1 week to go.

My liquid diet is supposed to start tomorrow, but with work and a hectic Monday, I started today.

I woke up and cleaned out the refrigerator and pantry.

My surgery is June 5. I've never gone this long without food.< br>
