Here you go.

Hi everyone. Today is 6 months out for me. Doing well. No problems at all...except Constipation. I drink a lot of Water, get in the recommended Protein, exercise and take in less than 20 grams of carbs. a day. My surgery weight was 203 on 1/15/20. Today I weigh 133.2 ...7/15/20. I’m pretty happy with that. I do have to confess I get a bit jealous when I read a lot of you lose quite a bit more than that in the same amount of time. I have lost 10 pounds every months...almost consistently! I can say I have rarely ever went over 500 calories a day since day 1. My goal is 120 lbs. almost there!!! Just wanted to check in and wish everyone well!!!!

Heyyyy it's yo girl. Got my arrival time for my butt lift and thighplasty tomorrow at 7:30 a.m., then 450cc silicone implants in-office on the 15th! Thus will conclude the plastic surgery journey. Prior to bypass I had a breast reduction w/ full nipple graft breast lift and full body liposuction. Post-bypass I had bra-line excision, arm lift, Tummy Tuck, and soon-to-be butt and thigh lift and implants. AMA! I'm officially an expert. lmao. There's nowhere else for them to nip and tuck!
$$$$$$$$$$$
He was supposed to email me my before and after tummy tuck and arm lift but he forgot. I will post them this week when I remind him at my follow-up Friday.

I was taking Ursodiol whole at about three weeks out. Everything else I took whole the day I got home from the hospital.

I also had a lot of pain still 2 weeks out. My pain was mostly all on the left lower side. But I had gastric bypass. Once I got to week 3, all the pain subsided

I was in pain for 2 wks not to say you will at the 2 wk mark I started to feel great and haven't looked back since now I'm 1 months and 2 wks out now and feeling great.....36 lbs dwn

Congratulations 🎊

Mung bean & edamame fettuccine with baby seal pate tomato/olive pesto/vegetable sauce and vegan parmesan.
Looks absolutely gross on the picture but tastes great.

Dinner! .75 cup egg whites, 1 egg, .5 slice gouda, .5 oz shredded cheddar, 100 grams roasted potatoes, salsa and green olives. I haven't gone grocery shopping in 6 weeks and it's KILLING me. But I'm cleaning out my freezer/pantry so progress?!

Oh yum!!! That sounds amazing!!!

Congratulations, that’s amazing! I’ve lost 9 lbs. keep up the great work! I’ve went from 203, day of surgery, to 194 today.

Ahhh ! Now that seems like a more manageable expectation
A lot of people fall on many sides of the spectrum of healing so its really hard to accurately compare your journey to others. (I was in terrible pain for 2 straight weeks post my initial VSG surgery and virtually no pain post RNY conversion)
But only you know your body, so don't hesitate to tell your team if you believe the pain is excessive.

Thank you for your response. When I say exercising I mean walking around the block and walking up and down basement stairs a few times a day... so nothing vigorous. This pain is worse than any pain I’ve every had. I’ve broken my legs and that was nothing in comparison. I just feel kinda disappointed because a few of the posts I’ve read sounded like people were not in much pain. I just have this constant stabbing pain in my lower abdomen that doesn’t let up. Again, thank you for your answer. Have a great day😊
