You look great - what a difference 6 months makes!
The thing I feel most guilty about is not exercising enough.
The thing I feel most proud about is making good nutrition a priority - 71 pounds in 6 months!
Thank you! I am down 90 pounds, 299 starting weight now i am 209, it really feels like i wont lose another pound and i always feel hungry. Its certainly not that easy. I try to exercise at least 3 days a week.

How is everyone doing from June!?!? I had my surgery June 2 at 299 and currently weigh 215. I have been stuck at this weight forever its certainly not easy making the right food choices or what to eat!

Hey how are you doing, i feel like i am 100 percent better just some pain from from where my port was. Im deff struggling getting my Protein in its like i have to gag a Protein shake down its that gross tasting!!! I just found these yogurt smoothies made by dannon light and fit 12 grams of Protein but 10 sugars. Have you experimented with food at all. I really don't feel any restriction like the band felt like its really nice but i hope my pouch is small enough

I feel the struggle, I am 6 days post Rny and am on stage 2 of the full liquids I just finished a whole packet of oatmeal and felt no fullness or satisfaction of being full. Also just constantly hungry. I am also a band revision so idk.

Home again and (mostly) better. The first night was pretty rough and my Dr didn't leave orders for anything but morphine, which I did not want to take. Came home to my hydro and oxycodone and MUCH better. Seven incisions and very painful where the band was removed. Photos the Dr gave us show flesh growing around port tube, port lesioned to inside ab wall, and lesions around band at stomach. So grateful it is GONE! No trouble since coming home, though I can see getting a regular sleep pattern back going to take a few days. That is NOT a concern I care much about!
Kewadiak, how are you doing?I have my band to gastric surgery 6/2/16 good luck!!
I am in so much pain, i am still in hospital due to the fact thats i have a fever and am dehydrated. My surgeon said my surgery was 6 hours long and it was hard to do. I am having a hard time moving, i hope it gets easier soon

I am having a really hard time following this preop diet I keep cheating! I guess I'll make sure to follow it starting Tuesday since my surgery is the 2nd! Also, getting nervous a bit since I am a revision from lapband I keep thinking I am going to wake up and they tell me sorry we couldn't do it all at once.

.I've been low carbing for the last 3 months during my required 3 month supervised diet. It definitely helped with my sugar cravings. I tried a bunch of different Protein shakes. I've lost 34 pounds. I'll have one week of liquids prior to surgery and of course, nothing after 12a the night before. I'm 54, so the saggy skin thing worries me too but I would consider plastic surgery if I was really bothered by it. We'll see. One step at a time, right?
Can you recommend a Protein brand you liked? I cant find one that i actually can stand.

Does it hurt alot where the port was? Did the surgeon say how your stomach was from the band being in there any damage? Im going to have band to by pass june 2 in one surgery im getting nervous!
-
I finally got approved after 22 long days! June 2nd is my surgery date, now I just hope it can be done all in one!
