I'm anxious. Btw my doctor doesn't put you on a special diet pre-surgery. I've been eating anything I want! Are you nervous? I think I'm most worried about comic atoms. Of all goes well, I think I can deal with anything.

Who is your surgeon? Mine is Dr. Wittgrove and he doesn't do the pre surgery diet also, your the only other person I've seen on here that doesn't have to do the pre surgery diet.

Going on day two of post op....if it weren't for the gas pains in my shoulder and neck, I wouldn't even know I had surgery! Except of course the obviousness that I can only drink a medicine cup full of fluids at one time and then feel almost painfully full! I'm so excited about the future now...still seems surreal that I had it done!

Pretty good! Thank you for asking. I am so tired of the full liquid diet already and I have 2 more weeks before phase 3. I have lost 12lbs since surgery. How are you doing?

I am right there with you on bored with full liquids! I want to chew something so bad! Lol...I've lost 21 lbs since before preop diet until now but 14 of it has been since surgery. I'm feeling back to normal with the exception of that small pinch of pain on the right upper side sometimes.

You are allowed cereal?! I'm so jealous! I'm literally on full liquids meaning nothing BUT liquids right now and very thin ones, no lumps etc. :( I want something crunchy so bad for some reason!

I definitely will ask! I have my 2 week post op appt. tomorrow so I will be drilling them on whether or not I can add items to my current menu. Right now it consists of drinkable yogurts or blended Soups with Clear Liquids. I will survive either way but I would love to have something else!

      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?
