Clear liquid diet has gone alot better than expected. I've sipped on liquids all day, eaten a few popcicles and sugar free Jello and I actually haven't had much hunger. I've been trying to just keep focused on doing well and not thinking of food. Just the rest of today, tomorrow and then surgery! Can't believe it's here. Felt like this day would never come and I'm getting emotional rather than nervous. So happy I started this process when I did and didn't wait any longer.

I have butterflies in my belly......surgery is 2 weeks from today and I'm feeling like OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG.......all of sudden second guessing myself.....all of sudden planning on gym trips and how am i going to get my Protein in (i have great hair)' date=' are chewable vitamins just as effective, can I afford new clothes right now, will I look like a walking bobble head (body goes down, head stays the same), I'll miss eating the best greasy ribs in DC (might be a deal breaker), can I really miss work for two weeks and not stress about it CONSTANTLY.........I keep having all of these thoughts and more and normally I'm a pretty calm person.

My coworker had it a year ago and she started at 500lbs and is now down to 300 but eats all sorts of crap now and eats something constantly, I don't want to be like that. As I'm typing this, she's eating candy, yesterday it was chocolate, what the hell? Then there is that part of me that can't wait to show off in front of those that can't seem to talk to me about anything other than weight....."hey, I've got some old clothes that are waaay to big for me, do you want them?:" "You're with her, but she's fat". I can't seem to think about anything other then the post op crap....can I really do this....and truth be told........I'm scared, really scared

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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
