I snuck a bit of diet coke last night. We moved yesterday and I had 18,000 steps in I was so drained from jt and limited food. And of course, no weight loss this am. because I ate this way before, I am barely losing on this preop diet

I also quit coffee. It's been 7 days. I am sober from alcohol 13 months. Quit smoking 1 year ago and now coffee. Coffee has been the hardest! No caffiene or coffee in 7 days...I really wanted one today.

Hi all! Everyone is doing amazing and I come for some comparison answers. I know were all different, but I'd like to hear from you! At consult my BMI was 41.3 now its 38.9. I weigh 211 as of today and am beginning the preop diet. Anyone with similar starting stats that can tell me how far out you are, what you've lost? 5'2 211lbs

What pain meds were you given? I just had my preop and was given diladid...seems like overkill and honestly like whoa!

hello fellow wls patients! I am so excited, finally after 3 months of denials and trials, I am approved! My surgery is set for January 7th, 2019. Darn insurance really just wanted me to pay the deductible and out of pocket maximum again I know it! I'm very excited and not nervous at all. One thing that makes my situation different than some, is I am breastfeeding! Shes now 5 months old and about to start some solids next month. Although, mamas milk is number 1 nutrition. My surgeon, lactation support person and babies pediatric dr are all supportive. The main thing for me is fluids, fluids, fluids! My milk never fluctuates even at 500 calories, I eat a lot of protein and healthy fat. I cant wait for this. I live such a restrictive life with food as it is with hardly any success of weight loss. I only gained 6lbs while pregnant and have now lost 25lbs...in 5 months with breastfeeding, eating under 20 carbs a day. I'm glad I've stuck with it though as it will be helpful after surgery. anyway, sorry for rambling. I'm so excited!
