Got the news today that they have moved my consultation with the surgeon up to tomorrow (was supposed to be in September) - so excited - maybe things will happen quicker than I anticipated - so praying. Just hope I can do this - so worried about the pre/post op diet.

I have the same type job. Never leave my desk. I pack a lunch or have delv or I dont eat. Do you have a kitchen at work? We do, so I bought one of those single serve blenders to mix my Protein drinks. You could do that. I plan on stacking my desk with high Protein foods. Peanut Butter, my Protein shakes, i have yogurts in the fridge at work. I am sure I will come up with other items. Read some of the posts on daily intakes to get some ideas about how you can fit protein in. I've been going throught them to vary my menu. Good luck with your appt. let us know how it goes.

I'm sorry they are messing with your meds. I assume it has something to do with the surgery? I am on abilify and lamictal and clonazepam. I hope whatever they switch you to works well for you. If not you get up their behinds about getting it right :)

Oct 12th it was one of the best decisions I've ever made.. lost over 100 pounds just stick to it you've already made the biggest decision by saying that you want to do it so just maintain.. the one thing I do want you to keep in mind this the way that people who you thought were your friends may treat you different

Melissa1234 - I am on Ability and Pristiq but my Pristiq is not crushable so I have to go on something else for a couple of weeks which scares the crap out of me. Thanks to all of you for keeping me grounded and realizing that this really is the best decision I have ever made - just can't wait for the actual surgery!

I'm worried about that too, but my doc allows me one small meal a day on the preop, so that's a plus. I work at a food court, so it'll be hard on my will power not to cheat

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.

      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!!
