I Just had my last nutritionist visit yesterday and I'm scheduled for 10/28. I'm starting to feel nervous now but exited as well. I'm looking through the forums to get an idea of what liquids I should get for the pre op and post diet

I'm done! Everything went well. This is one of the few times I don't want to eat. Just getting the liquids down is hard. Right now all I can say is thank goodness for pain meds! The only thing I could compare it to was my 2 C-sections, they were 20+ years ago and this pain is nothing like that.

      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?
