Hi all,

Best wishes!

Good luck! I'm scheduled for Jan. 17. Today was the first day of my liquid diet and it was easy until dinner when I caved and had chicken noodle Soup and crackers which I don't think is bad considering my old habits. Tommorrow is another day!

3 weeks. I'm not sure why...maybe because I have so much weight to lose? Thanks! I'll keep you posted :)

Day one of the liquid diet and I'm starving, but I can't bring myself to drink another shake today. Hopefully this gets easier.

I'd be starving too Steph! But I'm sure it will get easier as it goes by! Can you suck on anything to curve the appetite? Like a life saver maybe? I don't start my liquid until next week. Keep us posted and we'll keep up the encouragement!!!

Steph it does get easier I'm a week into mine, the first couple of days are rough but it gets better. Hardest part for me was christmas and not being able to really enjoy it. But I know that this is what I have to do to reach my ultimate goal. Good luck to all the jan. banders.

Day 2 & 3 were easier during the day but I still had Soup and crackers for dinner. I don't know what it is about 6pm but the thought of having another Protein Shake disgusts me at that hour. I don't eat anything after dinner...maybe just have some tea. So I'll try again tomorrow :) I just went grocery shopping and got all kinds of things to make all sorts of recipes I've found online. If there's anything that's really good, I'll let you know!!!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
