Four days post op an so far so good 😊

I love all the before and after pics ,so,inspirational!

Why can u not have the shakes ? I’m four days post op and have been allowed the shakes the whole time

I got sleeved Fridaythe March 22

How much did you gals and guys lose ur first week!

But look at the bright side ,”we all going to be hawt “ I had my surgery Friday ,and sat was rough ,but today is a new day and I’m going to get out and walk a bit ,hopefully,we leave Las Vegas Tuesday ans hope to be in my home town by Tuesday night,the doc repaired a hital hernia and tht has been my biggest thing so far aside from only siping Water instead of chugging it I’m not hungry yet but I stay so dang thirsty ,I’m forty as well ,ans did this for my heart and I hope to come off my bp meds ,I’m glad it’s challenging me to make better food choices as I lived off McDonald’s during the day and pizza rolls at night smfh I thk when we get down to our ideal weight we’ll be able to add things in like wings ,now the pizza I don’t know but they is some awesom Parmesan crust recipes out there ,and I hope I don’t develop blood clots I had a friend who had his gall bladder taken out then died a week later only wished I could had got to him sooner losing the weight could had saved his life ,maybe try finding friends at the gym or something people with the same goals as you and take it one day at time ,32 pounds is great keep at it ,when u get there u will be able to say “wow I did it “👏

15 pounds in a month is awesome 👏

Anyone else allowed to eat the day before my surgery is tommorw ans im allowed to eat a Protein and veggies ? As long as I don’t eat aftwe 8 tonight

It’s will not let me post my photos and I don’t know why

Well
Made it to Vegas went through y’all the test for preop ,surgery tomorrow it’s real now Dr Tom Ulmbach will be performing my surgery called the “safe sleeve “he is the only one who does the safe procedure ,blossom Bariatrics ,it’s is being performed as outpatient and tht makes me nervous 😬 but I’m hearing good reviews from the limos drivers ,I’m on preop diet Protein and unlimited veggies two shakes a day ,NPO by 8 pm tonight limo pick up at 10:15 said I will be at the warm springs surgical center for 5-6 hours then back to my hotel then in on sat for IV therapy to prevent dehydration and they are going to check for leaks ,prayers for me and I will pray for you all good luck my SW 228 was what I weighed yesterday can’t wait to see where I am at 8months from now 🤣

Anyone had this done as our patient my plane leaves tommorw n I’m getting nervous I fly to Vegas to have it done my BMI is 42.3

I’m struggling with preop diet I’m so hungry 😋

Who all has used Bloosum Bariactrics in Las Vegas ?

Try blossom Bariacteics in Las Vegas instead of Mexico they are doing mine for under 9 k

Anyone used “Bloosum Bariacteic” ?

March 17-27 I will be at bloosum Bariacteics In Las Vegas , my surgery will be the 21 or something they do a five day fast track with surgery the third day there we r arriving early to see Las Vegas but it almost half the price to have it there which worked out great since I turned into a self pay

Well as you all know I had insurance issues ,now I just paid for my surgery in full ,to have the sleeve done in Las Vegas at Bloosum Bariactrics ,have any of you ever used them ?

Well , I went through six months of weigh in nutrition classes ,EDGs ,cardiac clearances,psych evaluations ,blood work ,and now they cancelled the insurance two weeks ,before I was due to have the surgery . So I won’t be getting to get sleeved now ,I thk it’s all a scam here in Ky they rack up tht Insurance then boom right before surgery date they “cancel “ your insurance .

Tht is so sad ,was his in a inoperable place ,as well ,they told me “losing the excess weight is what would help”but I appreciate the prayers ,I was really scared at first ,but I have since got over tht fear, I thk ,god just comes and collects some of us early,
,I never did find out what caused mine ,but I contribute it the body weight ,when I met with my nutritionist I asked “where she been all my life lol ,cause tht is something we don’t understand when we are young and invincible tht hey the Big Mac is really killing us ,I wish I would had eaten better younger ,and earlier but hey it’s never too late right ,my heart bleeds for you ,but know tht life here is short and temporary ,and it goes bye so fast ,your son will be waiting for you at the gates ,where the streets are paved with gold and there is so pain ,tears ,or sadness , I wouldn’t know what it would be like to bury a child as I can’t imagine ,but he sure must been special ,cause I believe ,god takes the special ones early ,as Jesus was in his thirties as well .

I did ,and I don’t mean tht litterily I just mean tht I love to cook( I’m a CEO) of A small town pizzeria ,(I’m being recommended for this due to the fact tht I have a inoperable aneurysm in the chambers of heart wall ,(it’s inbetween the top right and left chambers )losing a 100 pounds will release the pressure of of it ) it’s going to be a challenge I know ,and a new introduction to Caulflower Pizza Crust and more greens etc ,I started at 259 six months ago ,I’m current at 230 and we’ll with thyroid issues to boot it’s been hard )

U look great ,and healthy ,tht is my goal to be healthier,I have a bad food addiction and wonder what I’m going to transfer tht too ,turn into a workout freak I reckon , I never had a weight problem till 30 happened lol then boom 💥 one day at a time though right ,what has been your biggest challenge to overcome? And what advice would you give on it ?

Your inspiration I don’t see any skin tht looks loose 👍

I’m waiting for insurance approval seeming how I got to two weeks before my date and they cut my insurance off just redid everything and waiting to get insurance approval it has been six months hope to get a date for February and so far my biggest fear is the skin I turned forty In August n I worry I’m going to have lots of skin sagging

How has “skin affected any forty year olds “? Tht is my biggest fear the skin not tightening

February I’m looking at
