Fear of FUPA surgery- That's a new issue I need to bring up to the Psych guy that insurance is making me see one more time before approval. I used fear of excess skin the last time.

Lissa- Awe Thank You so much. I do feel better about my loss now <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /> I tend to look at things in a negative way instead of positive when it comes to myself. I know it's bad' date=' but low self esteem and being overweight my whole life has done that to me. Actually I have allowed that to do it to me.

I've been feeling BLAH too because I can hardly eat. I have about 2 oz and I'm done. I feel Neaseous right after and I don't eat for the rest of the day. I am only getting about 20oz of liquid a day. I keep asking myself, will I ever be able to eat more than 2-3 oz a day ever?

What does your meal plan look like at 9 months out?

Sorry I've been rambling on :-([/quote']

I'm 6 mo out. I eat about 1200 cal a day. Try to work out 5 days a wk. I drink 20 oz in 20-30 min. After workout

Had a patient once who referred to the area as her "precious". Gave a whole new perspective when I saw "lord of the rings"!!

I love this thread!! I had never been in this forum until I was coming here to ask the same question....I'm not sure if it is my sexy scorpion mentality or female curiosity that makes this topic so important for me to know...But thanks for the information, education, and humor!!

I brought up the possible changes to the love shack with hubby dearest, but offered up the possibility of a slave Leia costume once I hit goal. I think we'll be fine ;-)

This is too funny for first thing in the morning. I laughed and snorted coffee out my nose. Who knew a slave Leia costume is all that's required to re-balance the universe after VSG?

Bwahahahahahaha... ;d

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
