October 14 peeps you ready



Recommended Posts

Today is day 7 of my preop and I woke up very hungry. Next two days I have to do clear liquid and I am not sure what I can eat/drink to keep me full. But surgery day is around the corner. Good luck to all coming up and I hope everyone that has done the surgery is feeling great today. Share your tips please.

I am going on the 13th so I am really on the roller coaster emotionally. I don't do Clear Liquids until after the process . I do 1000 calories a day I've only been hungry 1 or two times. I try to keep busy to stop my mind from wandering to scary thoughts

I needed to do clear liquids for a few days post-op. I drank the Isopure clear read-to-drink fluids; the large bottles have 40g Protein. I figured if I could keep the Protein level up, I was less likely to go through a bout of losing a lot of hair.

I am about as ready as I am going to get. Cleaned out the fridge last week. Bought needed essentials. Have prepping and post op med at hand. Coerced loved one to travel 1100 miles to care for me for 5 days. Coerced others to look I'm after he leaves.

Had last nice meal with steak.

Just need to figure out how to tell the cats that mommys yummy is not a may ground any longer.

I love that my new life date will be 10/14/2014. Haha.

Let's keep up the great attitudes losers! Love to all of you.

      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.

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
