@@blissfulbeing - For me that didn't happen until I moved onto purees. I needed something to chew. Once I could have a soft scrambled egg, I was good to go.

When is it, Fluffy?

Blissful, it's so fun to hear you learning your body's new signals. I love how clear they are. It makes all the difference.

AV, you are kicking mighty butt!!

Had my second post op appointment today and it went great. My weight when I started was 320 my weight today at the doctor office was 243. I'm so happy. My dr his intern and there nurse were all so excited and happy with my progress. For those that remeber i almost backed out of the surgery and my dr said aren't you glad you went through with it. I can honestly say that I think doing this surgery was the best thing I ever decided to do.

Avhick.. You are rockin it!! I remember how nervous you were - and look at you now! I'm so excited for you!

I'm down 19 pounds and am heading back to work on Monday. I just went through my closet to work on what I might wear for next week. My current clothes - especially pants - are already too big to keep wearing. Luckily I have several pairs of pants that I "outgrew" over the past few years that I can now fit back into. That should cover me for a while. It's crazy how quickly our bodies change...

On Sunday I get to start my puréed stage! Before surgery I didn't understand why people were so excited about that.. But I sure understand now! Three more "sleeps" and then I get some more real-ish food!

Hope everyone is well! Keep us posted! ????

Hello all you losers!

6 weeks post op and I've definitely hit and stayed in a stall. Haven't lost any weight in three weeks but I am not worried. I have lost over 30 inches all over my body and I can tell I'm losing, just not in pounds. HW 266 SW 257 CW. 226. Definitely a roller coaster of a journey but I am focusing on Summer and how smaller, healthier, and energetic I will feel!!!

I'm hungry! One more week until I can have puréed foods!

You get some real food tomorrow!!!

I am still in clear liquid stage but go right to purees next Tuesday. I am hungry and cant wait to have a bite of egg or cottage cheese. I really didn't expect to feel so very hungry in this first week after surgery. I am handling it well though and I feel proud of myself already :P

Yes, Minnie! I didn't expect to be this hungry either! And it's not head hunger because it's coming from my stomach! ???? I had a scrambled egg this morning and it was divine! The one egg filled me up! So cool! It feels amazing to have a new set of foods added to the menu. I feel so much more satiated and so much less deprived. Who knew that an egg would ever be this exciting?! I feel like I'm more of a normal person again now. Only two more days for you, Minnie!

Sassy- Thank you so much and YES you do want to go through with it! I'm not gonna lie, it's a rough road through the month following surgery, but once you are through it, it is SO worth it! You can do it! You will look and feel fabulous!! I have zero regrets and a Summer I'm actually looking forward to!

That's awesome! Had my EGD. I have a large hernia so that explains acid reflux and stuff. Now I just got wait for them to do a follow up and get this ball rolling in the right direction.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      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...
