Finally feeling a little more awake. Still no pain, couple oz's of ice chips. I really want a Popsicle but only because my mouth and throat are dry, not because I'm hungry. So happy I stuck out the preop diet. Days 1&2 are clear liquid, I can't wait for full liquid. Thanks for all the well wishes everyone. Feels good to be on the other side

Just reporting in, I was expecting tons of gas pain, but so far none. When I asked my sugeon about it he said you shouldn't have any because i got most of it out during surgery. I can advance to full liquids today, but it's very hard as im not hungry at all. Yes I know its necessary to make sure I get all my Protein in so I think I'll attempt a Protein Shake in a little bit. Im just amazed right now. I tried to get chicken broth down last night and could only do a couple of spoonfuls before I was full. I never needed anything for pain so no Constipation for me. All systems are working fine. Picture perfect surgery and recovery so far. Hope everyone else has such an easy time. Thanks for all the support.

      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
