Recommended Posts

My surgery is December 11 in TJ. Start my preop diet day after Thanksgiving, l am trying to cut back , weening myself off coffee so that it won't be cold turkey. Tried Protein Shake that was recommended and I really like. Premier Protein. Going to SAMs today to get a couple of 12 pks. Heard tastes changes after surgery, so I won't go overboard with buying a lot of stuff. Getting a little obsessive and reading as much as I can. Just can't wait to get it over with , so I can start this journey.

Hello All....I am scheduled for December 5th. I start my 2 week Liquid Protein diet on Nov. 20th so no turkey for me. I am in Louisiana. My process really hasn't taken that long. I started everything the beginning of August. The one thing that held me up was having to lose 15-30 pounds in order for my documents to be submitted to the insurance company. This is when I realized that this is a mental journey. I couldn't get it together at first and then in two weeks I had lost 14 pounds and still losing. Getting nervous but it has to be done. Looking forward to sharing my experience!

      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
