Recommended Posts

Ok that's pretty much what I do as well! Isn't it crazy how much fills us up now??

I get puréed Soups starting tomorrow and between Protein and Water I don't know how I am gonna fit it in lol! Maybe If I measure it in like you are to 4 oz and just see how I feel! It was so crazy today this morning I was with my aunts and grandma and they were eating cinnamon rolls as I sipped on protein and I didn't even want the cinnamon roll, seeing them eat it didn't bother me at all!

I sat here and watched my bff eat pizza, which is my favorite food. While it smelled delicious, I definitely had no desire to eat it. I ate my 4oz of Tomato Soup and I was happy. We went to tcby for frozen yogurt and I got a kiddie size portion, which is a whole 3 oz. I ate mauve a quarter odd it, and she was amazed. She was like are you full? And it's hard to explain. I haven't gotten"full" yet, I just get to a point where another bite just didn't sound good. She was shocked. She's thinking of having this surgery, so I think it was an eye Leber for her.

Although now I really can't wait to be all healed an nom on a piece of pizza. Haha.

But yeah. My roommate, dad, and bff have all made delicious smelling foods in front of me, but I've had no real desire to eat them. Which is weird and awesome all at the same time.

Good luck! I love Dr. Gluck! And I loved every nurse I had while I was at Mercy. The nice thing is most of the nurses have had some bariatric surgery, so they know what you're going through. I also thought it was awesome that Dr. Gluck took time out of his Saturday night to call me and see how I was doing. You got this! I was scared too, but it's been incredible. and I'll tell ya, once I went home, I've felt better and better almost every hour.

I'll keep you in my thoughts! You got this. Must keep your mind on those "I want to....."

I'm in the doctor's office now for my pre-op appointment!!! Surgery first thing in the morning! Just a little nervous, mostly because the only medical procedure requiring anesthesia that I've ever had was the pre-op EGD! I've met my pre-op goal weight and I'm ready to go!

My surgery is on Friday and I have a cold. I wonder if they are going to reschedule it because of that. Hopefully I can get rid of this before Friday morning. I have had it since this past Friday. Any suggestions to help me get rid of this dumb thing?

      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...
