Hey everyone. So I haven't been keeping up to date on everything that's been posted for the last 3 weeks or so... I was dealing with stress, nerves and a bit of depression related to my own surgery so had to take a step back.
That being said my love and support goes out to all you wonderful people ❤️
What triggered my stress was actually receiving confirmation of my surgery date... got confirmation and realized looking at the calendar it was 3 weeks away! While I knew we were aiming for late June for it to suddenly be coming up was intense.
My surgery is Wed June 26th at 7:00 am!! Feeling much better about it and while still nervous looking forward to getting it done at this point.
Thanks everyone for being so encouraging with sharing your own journey's.

I don't have exact date but talked to the Surgeon's office today. She said the are booked up until August. I have finished my requirements for my insurance, so it's a waiting game. I figure it will be late August.

Hi, everyone!
Hope all of you are well and doing great after your surgery, or you are all ready for your big day!
Just a quick update on me, in case anyone wants to see what a few weeks out may/can look like.
I will be 4 weeks out of my RNY on Monday. I think I am finally starting to feel more like myself again. I am feeling like I have a bit of a bariatric routine going for Vitamins, food, and Water so it isn't quite taking over so much of my daily focus and I am starting to feel more energy, too.
I am able to eat some soft chicken, fish and shimp now without trouble. (I weigh each "meal" out with a scale, about an ounce worth or less, and log it down.) I have a calorie limit of 300 calories this week, which bumps up to 400 next week. I have never felt nauseous, but I only eat till I feel any pressure at all and stop. For those on only liquids still, hang on! It does get sooo much better with just a little bit of real food.
I have been just meeting the low end of my 60-80 grams a day Protein goal- though I think it will be easier with a few more calories to use, if I need them. So far I have still needed a whey Protein Shake to meet my daily protein goal. UGH!!! Good Lord, if I never, ever taste another whey shake again that would be great... I am SOOO over those puppies. I feel like I can taste that stuff all the time. GROSS!!!
Honestly, the hardest thing for me is getting that 64 ounces of water in daily! I am full for so long after eating, I think I just don't want to drink even. I am doing better everyday though.
Wishing each of you the best in your journey and looking forward to reading more about everyones great progress !!! 💙

Few jokes lol! Enjoy!

I am more than likely going to be having the sleeve in late August or early Sept. I am in the middle of my 6 month doctor regulated diet for my insurance coverage. Waiting is the worst! But kudos to you for recognizing what could have happened if you didnt wait!

I am wondering if doctor will tell them what I am having surgery on or speak to ones on my list while the ones, I don't want to know are present or have visitors come, the nurse or doctor may talk to me in front of them. Good luck keeping your secret.

So the reason I choose 8-2-19
Was because I'm an out doors kinda guy.. I love my fishing and taking dips in the lake.. my son turns 2 in April and I want to enjoy his day.. If I do it early I feel like I would get dehydrated with this central California heat and get to miss out on a lot of fishing and swimming with my little one

Wait to you lose your weight he is going be so sorry he left but girl keep going forward. I do think it is a good ideal to do things he never wanted to and enjoy yourself. food I wonder if you can have a grape. They say freeze them then it's like a popsicle, just don't swoll it just suck. Maybe the sugar of the grape be enough like wine and natural sugar freezes on the outside of grape, ease you right now.

I so understand the delima I was 17yrs when I got married been with the same man for 34yrs. He treats me just like that. I even carry is food to him in the man's cave (as they like to call it). I had surgery on my thumb in January wasn't supposed use it for 6weeks. He got tired working and coming home and having to take care of cooking. He brought food home one day and threw food on the table and said there it is. It definitely was a different time and for some us a do it to the end kind of girl but we do need that respect and love ourself enough to speak up in confidence. Glad you have come a long way and learned that your special too. Glad you have your fur babies.

I actually see a therapist but the physiracterist that test me for my insurance approval said he wanted me to come see him every 3mths after the surgery and maybe then I might get it together. The have medicine and finally have that regulated. I think it just seating here why life passes me by.

I haven't heard anyone doing that but a lot of weight loss causes you to have issues later. So I guess there was since you having another surgery in the next 6mths.
