I feel like just need to live off ProtiDiet to make up for the horrible carb/protein ratio I've gotten gotten the last 2 days. Hahaha. That's probably why my stomach is eating itself right now. Hah

I drank a bunch of Water. My stomach was like "bitch please. U ain't fooling me with that crap"

I drank a ProtiDiet. My stomach did the same thing and is telling me it's even hungrier. It's such a dick. Hahaha.

I'm getting sleeved in 3 more days. (If you count this as Saturday since it's the wee morning hours.) it sort of freaks me out. I didn't have a problem with them taking my gallbladder out but this seems so extreme. I feel sadness. And at the same time I'm thinking "fuck you fat stomach!"

Yeah. I'm weird

Hey everyone,

I have been gone for a while. I was sleeved on the 10th. I had my prayers, lip balm, and gas x ready. Lol. All I can remember was the recovery room. My blood pressure did spike a little. My surgeon said my liver was good and it was a nice sleeve.

I live in GA, and left the hospital the next morning. We were snowed in and all I had was broth and popsicles. Lol. Today, I feel great. My husband took me shopping because I can't eat anything. Walking helped soooooo much. I was miserable before. I was able to walk today, and I feel like a million bucks.

Let me be honest. Day 2 I cried alone due to regret. I finally shared it with my husband today. I asked myself, y couldn't I do this myself. I asked , what had I done to myself. I prayed for understanding. Today, my rainbow after the storm has come.

This post is very long, I felt it would be selfish to not share my truth. I have a wonderful support system, and my husband has been great. Oh. Fyi. I am 35 lbs down from my last weight in before pre opt. I wish you all luck.

Thank you for the update and for your honesty. I think it's so important to know people have the "what did I do to myself?" moment. I had that moment between sleeps in the hospital. I felt so sick and so non-functional. Even now, I'm only

going on to my third day and I am awake in the middle of the night with pain and low blood sugar. How could I not wonder what got me here? I personally feel that its a healthy question to ask both before and after surgery. How else can we learn and move on in our healthy new life?

I'm glad you are seeing the rainbow through the clouds. Having a good support system is really helpful. My husband is one of the good ones. I know he's had his "what is she doing?" moment. Again, it's just natural.

Please keep us updated on your success. Down 35 pounds in a month? That's incredible. Keep it up! You're doing great!

You're not weird in the slightest! I looked at my stomach and talked to it the morning of surgery. I told her it wasn't anything personal. But only one of us could continue in my life journey and I was choosing me.

How's that for weird? Lol

SJ, our weather was 83 today. Honestly, it's flipping February. That's just wrong! Tomorrow we have a high of 75. So it will be slightly cooler. But this isn't a typical California winter. It's been insanely hot. I miss our "chilly" 60ish degree winters. Lol.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
