I am on the liquid phase of my diet and I have to say this has been quite challenging. I have to stay all liquid until June 3rd for surgery. No one at works seems to understand how hard it is to stop eating solid foods. Some have even been teasing me with food. I know it seems strange but I am having a hard time with this!!!!

I know we are so close, but it still seems so far away. I had the lap band and they now I am being converted to the sleeve, so I have done the liquid diet before. It SUCKS the first few days, but it gets easier. I will be starting mine on Memorial Day. And I will be in the car driving back from North Carolina for 8 of those hours. With three kids in the back seat. Should be interesting to say the least.

Within the last few days, to kind of prepare myself for the liver shrinking diet, I've been cutting waaaaay back on my meats and eating mashed potatoes, shells and cheese and chicken soup.... I don't want it to be a complete shock to my body when I do start...

      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

      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... :(
