January 15th, 2015 Anyone?



Recommended Posts

Feeling very anxious, and all I want to do is eat! I am heavy because of many different reasons health, bad eating habits and genetics. But I have never been a big eater and ate all day. Sometimes I can eat one meal a day and be good. But since I know I have to do the preop diet all I can do is think about food and eating. Uugghh ????

I felt that way before today. I was so nervous. But today went good. Three days early. But I'm going to eat tomorrow night for my son's birthday dinner. We are going out and we never do that. So I just have to keep reminding myself just to have a little instead of the whole entire schebang like I normally would do. It's unbelievable how much I can eat. My stomach honestly has to be huge. I've always been that way. So maybe tomorrow will be different for you too!

I think the eating once a day is another thing that ruined my metabolism.

I agree it's not good to eat one meal a day. My family wants to go have dinner on Friday before I start my preop diet and I am not sure if I want to go because I don't want to over eat.

January 13th here. Started my pre op today. It's going ok but I feel hungry. Water helps so far. So excited but scared too. This is gonna change my life in so many ways and I'm nervous to see what that will be.

I am getting sleeved on Jan 15 in MX. Who is everyone going through for their surgery? I am using Dr Ortiz with A Lighter Me and traveling alone. Pretty nervous about going alone, but it seems everyone becomes friends once they meet in MX so I am very hopeful with that. Sleeve buddies need to stick together lol.

We're going to have to keep in touch thru the rest of the pre op and then whenever we can, post op :)

How's everyone doing on their pre-op diet? I've made it through 3 days! It's not terrible, but it's not my favorite thing, either. :)

liquid diet, started a few days early, but last night I had a few bites of low carb food at a dinner party to keep from drawing attention. Man I can't do that it gives me all kinds of head hunger. I'm am all our nothin kinda girl. Anyway I have no more parties or dinners to go to before surgery so that's good.

      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

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
