Well today is my 4 month mark I started at 347 no pre-surgery loss today I'm at 275 which makes it 72 lbs!!! I'm ecstatic about it I'm doing things I haven't done in years but I'm a little scared weight loss has slowed so much I even gained 3 lbs I kept telling myself maybe gaining muscle bug I doubt it...hope it's just a stall my first before and after pik I had to look high and low for a full body shot I avoided those and crop was my best friend here goes nothing

Sleeved 2/27. Down 77lbs.

II set a goal for myself early on. I didn't think I went too aggressive. I weight myself regularly, but don't chart anything until after my Wednesday morning weigh-in. Wednesday just happened to be the day of the week I had my surgery.

The following is a simple Excel graph showing my target line (blue) vs actual weight (red).

Today marks the half way point in my weight loss journey. I should accomplish my goal by Christmas. Last week, my 12 year old son couldn't keep up with me while hiking. What seemed impossible almost five months ago is coming to fruition. Who would have thought! Talk about a new lease on life. I enjoy logging into this site

every Friday (after I weigh in) to read about everybody's journey. If misery loves company, so does success stories!

Before preop diet: 282

Operation day: 258 on 6/25

Post op weight 7/5: 248...my excitement was moving slide 1 less 50 lb notch on scale at work. Creamy Soup is too much for me, experienced dumping syndrome which was not worth the taste of cream of mushroon soup. So far feeling pretty good about things. Survived being at july 4th cookout around lots of yummy looking good.

My dr recommended doing body measurements to show success even when weight doesn't always drop as fast as we want.

I am struggling to choke down my Protein Shakes. Where do you find Unjury? What do you recommend to mix it with. I liked Premier Protein but am getting grossed out by it now.

Unjury was so unsavory I gave the Trial pack away. The best $200.00 investment you can make it to buy the Ninja. I start everyday with a Protein packed home-made shake full of fresh/frozen fruit, non-fat Greek yogurt, flax seed oil, vanilla whey, non fat milk and a few ounces of juice. Couldn't do without my Ninja blender. Worth every penny.

hmmmm I LOVE Unjury--most palatable Protein Powder out there IMO. It's also "hospital grade"--most bioavailable one so many hospitals and physicians recommend it when patients need Protein powder for various health issues. I did NOT like the Unjury "cheese sauce," but the vanilla, chocolate splendor and unflavored are fabulous. They blend really well, too.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
