Hey....... I'm just so freaking happy for all of the successful people out there who made it with me or before me :)... I'm also sad for those that are having issues after surgery. Hand in there. Hey I had two days of I hate food,and wala... Popsicle, creamy chicken Soup (it's Water down trust me),water,diet snapple,coconut Water a sip or two a day,that's about it. The shakes are to expensive for me to open it up & have it sitting in the fridge since my pouch is tiny I can get 2oz of liquid at a time. So I'm sticking more to water then anything. I can't offord to be in the hospital away from my babies again for something I can prevent such as dehydration. I keep the water extremely cold & have a few of them cuz by the time I go back to drink it's hot so back in fridge,and out the next. Don't like the opening & closing fridge gotta save energy lolz.. Well...............................well.....................well..........

Smiling here.. I'm doing wonderful. For a moment I thought I would be this big failure & will stay fat forever. I figure everyone is losing weight,and I'm doing the diet,and I lost 15 lbs before surgery I was happy,but after surgery I felt the same like I wasn't losing but I did lose weight. Well I'm still losing weight.

I was 211 when I first started everything then after diet plan before surgery went to 197 then after surgery now I'm currently 187lbs. I'm so damn happy lolz..

If I keep losing weight 2 pounds per day by the end of the month I should be 159lbs which my starting weight 15 years ago was 135lbswhich would mean I would only need 24lbs to get to the weight I started with as a teenager. Holy cow!!! what if I made it in only one month. What happens next??? Do I gain weight on stage 2 diet when I get to eat a little more solid???

Why all the sudden I'm freaken out..... Some one kick me now..

Great job on success. Your body will slow down. I was losing 3-5 pounds in a day in the first few weeks. Then had days I lost nothing. Now I excersize 4-6 times a week and I have steadily lost a pound a day. Somedays nothing is lost and that is ok. You want to give your body the time it needs. Plus the slower you lose the more time you give your skin to adjust. Keep up good work.

Wow you are doing great Mami! I have had no problems with the liquids which was helpful. Walking has been increasing and Protein is hard to get it. I haven't weighed myself yet but your news has encouraged me as we had surgery the same day. I go for my post op appt on Monday so I will weigh then! I too feel great and I thought I would be the one person this surgery would not work for lol but it did ! I only lost 5 on my per op diet and I was freaking out . Now all the stress of wondering if the surgery is going to happen or if I was getting approved or what diet I am going to try next has all left me ! I have my new lifestyle to look forward to ! Imam realizing a lot of my time was spent trying to figure out how to lose weight and it was very stressful ....now I have one plan.

      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!!
