I am 4 months out and have had some complications that have gotten me in the dumps from time to time and also slowed my weight loss. But seeing your success is really inspiring me to keep my eyes on the prize. NIGHT AND DAY wow not only are you objectively beautiful but it's like you glow happiness from inside out. Congrats and keep it going!

I was fortunate to not worry about complications. Despite your complications, your progress has been great! Good for you with sticking with it and not getting discouraged!

And thank you! :D

I use myfitnesspal.com to keep track of my diet and food diary. My diary is public so you can see all the nitty gritty details on their if you use it and want to be my friend :P

I haven't been as diligent lately but you can certainly go back through the weeks/months to see what I've been doing.

Generally though, I do have coffee, at least one cup a day, the caffeine deprived headaches were super painful and I hate taking pills so I figured one/two cups of caffeine wouldn't kill me... I start with coffee... I have a Protein shake most mornings or for a morning snack... I love low-fat cheese (string cheese, bonibels, fresh mozzarella) - so that's a super easy snack. I boil a lot of eggs and snack on egg whites or make an egg-white salad with a little mustard, salt and pepper (i tend to stay away from mayo, mostly). I love those individual tuna packets!! They're soooooo good and so easy to handle. I toss a teaspoon of a deelish aioli mustard from Trader Joe's and I'm happy as can be.

Trader Joe's does have this incredible low card, low calorie, high Fiber tortilla - if you allow yourself any carbs, this is the way to go! The net carbs are only like 4g a serving, only 45 calories - They're incredible and pretty much the only bread-like product in my diet. The rest of my carbs come from dairy, yogurts, etc.

I cook a lot of chicken, get tips from bariatric sites for all different kinds of meals that don't require breading, oils, bad fats...

I do lots of low-sodium cold cuts - rolled with low-fat cheese, wrapped in lettuce, or one of the aforementioned apps....

sugar free popsicles, no-sugar-added fudge pops, greek yogurt pops, vita-cakes... all good sweet, snack options.

Target has a simply balanced line of duets - these greek yogurt blends - they're delicious, under 100 calories and a nice source of Protein.< /p>

Hmmm... The last few days on myfitnesspal have been HORRIBLE because of work stress and being poorly prepared so if you do find me on there, don't judge me! haha But feel free to look through some of my better days and reach out with questions :)

Thanks everyone!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
