I had a whole food bucket list and my surgery was moved up two weeks and I had a weekend. It say goodbye it didnt feel like enough... so i cheated twice. The first time was just i felt deprived but the timeout cheated two days ago was awful my body rejected the solids and bad things happened from there. I think my main problem is I felt like I was divorcing food. I mourned the loss. We will make it together and you will get into that sexy holiday dress you've been excited about! You can do it!

I'm glad to hear someone say they too feel like they are mourning food! Don't get me wrong I am so ready for this journey and I know there will be hard times but I also know it will be worth it. But I do feel as though the ones around me have no idea what I'm fixing to go through. My surgery is sch for 9/12/12

Oh yes, mourning food is a big part of this process. I went through it. It's bitter and difficult, but you get over it after a while. I know it seems scary now, but you'll look back and be amazed at how much your outlook on food has changed so much for the better.

Some people have a food funeral before they start the pre-op diet. I tried that myself but it didn't help at all. In fact, it made me sad and I just wanted to eat more.

My surgery was Monday. I feel great. I don't miss food and boy I had a food obsession before. I did get all my favorites in before. Now I am happy with chicken broth. I have no hunger and needed to remember to feed my daughter (9 yrs). She is fed. Don't worry. But I used to live for what my next taste would be. Good luck

Funny How they say not to have a last supper though most do. How can you not? had a cheese steak at the fair fully aware it is my last cheese steak for a long while, maybe ever and I'm okay with that. But since I only have those cheese steaks once a year at that fair, I would felt deprived if I didn't have it.

      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!!

      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
