Just finished my last day at work



Recommended Posts

I just finished my last day at work, I start my leave of absence on the 4th. Surgery is on the 6th I am excited, but this Pre-Op diet is killing me. Does anyone have any suggestions for some way to liven it up little bit?

That depends on what your pre-op diet is, I suppose. There are lots of different kinds, and some people get to eat food while others... not so much. Mine was two weeks of BA shakes with fruit and a little veggie once a day.

Torani sugar free syrups, dry sugar free puddings, adding milk or almond milk for extra flavor, ice and blend like a smoothie. Just some suggestions for what worked for me.

Wow, I've never heard of that before. Only milk? o.O I mean, I love some dairy, but I dunno if I'd love 8 weeks of it.

So sorry to laugh at your misery....but that was funny! Try getting different colored sunglasses like rose color and maybe you will think you're drinking strawberry milk? I can't imagine drinking milk for so long! You're my hero! I have no doubt you will be one of the super successful sleevers!

thank you, one of the reasons im on the 8 week milk diet is I have very low cholesterol and they need to build it up as the surgeon says its worse than high and they would be afraid of liver damage, 1 week gone so just 7 more to go, now where are those sunglasses lol lol

      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.

      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! 😞
