But for me I think the song that most pumps me up is “ Hustling” by Rick Ross or “Whatever you like” by TI They are not new songs but they motivate me Because this is an every day hustle and I CAN have whatever I like to happen on this journey if I work for it .- Post Your Theme Song

Every ones post op requirements are different for our surgeon we have a 300-400 cal a day max 20 days post op but I’ve seen a wide array of different requirements for each stage on here- July 2019 Surgery Siblings Post-Op
The SECOND I got home from the hospital. Lol- July 2019 Surgery Siblings Post-Op
How’s everyone doing ? Kicking butt I’m sure!! Hubz and I are 18 days out he’s lost 42lbs and I’ve lost 31 lbs. We had our post op a couple Day’s ago and our Dr said we are ahead of schedule and to keep up the great work ! We are working the program and walking. We are very competitive so that helps to keep us on track but it also means although I’m happy for him and know men lose faster but I do feel slightly salty when we weigh in ?. The swelling is starting to go down and show a little more in our abdomens but You can tell the most in our faces. Hope to hear some updates from y’all too soon!- 10 days Post Op 27lbs down!
You’re Doing Great! Keep killin it! Hubz and I are 18 days out he’s lost 42lbs and I’ve lost 31 lbs. We had our post op a couple Day’s ago and our Dr said to keep up the great work!- July 2019 Surgery Siblings Post-Op
Stick to your program, keep your head up, the scale will start to move!- Help me trouble shoot my morning latte
Those sound delicious- July 2019 - Surgery Schedule
I had a significant repair too! The pain lessens in a few days! At 13 days out I don’t feel any pain from it at all now I just feel sometimes when I swallow it’s like a little restriction almost where they suture it. Hard to explain the feeling lol- Had surgery 6/24. Lost 21 pounds so far - can someone tell me how long it took to lose your weight?
I’m going to download the happy scale app to check out! Hubz and I are 12 days out and at 31&27.- Food processor recommendation please!
?loveee my cuisanart- Physical occupation...Can you do?
My husband and I both have very physically demanding jobs (Operator and I&E) we were both required to be out 4 weeks until we could go back without restrictions.- Medication
I also was sent home with pills/capsules day one. Day 12 and no issues so far- T Minus 2 Days Until Surgery!
You got this! It’s almost here!- Nervous surgery Monday

Ugh! Boo to that!- July 2019 - Surgery Schedule
As you guys cross over, find us on the flip side!- Sugar free popsicles
We like both brands but omg the outshine black cherry ?- Sugar free popsicles
The tropical ones are so yummy my kids steal them other their non sugar free pops lol- Anyone had a tummy tuck after weight loss?
My aunt had TT after 2 years maint. Then gained and lost but now the TT isn’t as pretty as it was but it’s not terrible.- 30 lbs loss
It definitely does suck that you can’t tell when we lose, on a thinner person a 30lb loss looks drastic. A few more lbs and I can be at that milestone with you!! I’ve lost 26 and Hubz has lost 30 and you can’t tell on either of us! If anything you can see it a tiny bit in our checks but nothing else.- July 2019 - Surgery Schedule
Didn’t forget to updat guys! I’m working on it! New updated list soon i promise! Things have been hectic - Post Your Theme Song
