Don't feel bad. I'm barely above the BMI cutoff to have surgery and today my doc told me to not lose anymore weight. He said I could eat a regular dinner tonight and tomorrow but I didn't do it because I don't want to. Weird, right? I am afraid it will make me overdo it. So I had an extra greek yogurt and will add a fourth shake to my days. Ugh.

Omg. I feel like I'd be so torn on that. Yes go out on a high (food coma) note, or be a food kid and follow my diet... Oh god. The angel and devil on my shoulder would have a good fight about that!!

And I cooked dinner! My meatloaf. I had a few bites but didn't have a full meal. A few bites of meat, then yogurt and a shake. I know I will overdo it if I give in.

What's crazy is that now that I'm detoxes of sugar, caffein and carbs I'd be leery of having them again Bc of the dang headaches. They were bad. It was such a sickening headache. But I'd have prolly had a huge steak. Lol

I'm so proud. And F if meatloaf doesn't sound like the best thing on the planet. My dad never made me it one last time.. I'm gonna have to have him try turkey meat for me sometime. (He makes the best meatloaf. I won't even bother lol)

I'm at the 35.1 BMI and just eat what I want till surgery. People say you can't have this in the future. I tell them w/in a yr I can have anything if I want it but it will be in much smaller quantities if I will even want them. food is what got me to this size and I sure don't want to get back to this weight ever again.

1 wk from tonight it will be all over and I'll be on the road to a healthy weight. Yahoo!!!!!

I'm also at 35 BMI. Haha. It's a funny place to be in the bariatric surgery world.

But... If the food is what got you here in the first place, why would you want to eat it even in small portions???

Hi Sherry, we've been daydreaming about food. And alcohol.

Yes. I think it's another reason I was paranoid I was doing this diet wrong. Lol. It's just been so "easy!"

:( that sucks! I had one yesterday, but I don't think it had anything to do with detox/this diet.

I'm gonna try my hardest to change from my old eating patterns. From pre-op diet on. When I said goodbye to pastas and breads and potatoes and fast food and fried foods... I meant it. My nutritionist says for long-term, sustained weightloss that I need to walk away. So I am.

      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...

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
