Had mine done in Hudson Valley with Dr. Shawn Garber. His main office is in Long Island and Manhattan. Where are you getting it done? And by who?

Inspiring!! How did you manage the mushy stage? Feel bad everyone else is on liquids for so long. Any food ideas for stage II

I did a lot of omelettes, meatballs, meatloaf, chicken salad, egg salad, I don't like tuna but you could do tuna salad. I did lots of cheeses and deli meats, chili, chicken from the crock pot and chew chew chew. The PA told me that I could get a little experimental as long as I chew food into a paste

I usually stay under 20, but I've gone as high as 60 on rare occasion.

      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!!

      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...
