@@ptsmile I live in Whittier, PIH is my medical designated hospital but was sent to Fountain Valley for mine. I was hoping I could stay at PIH with one of the doctors I saw there during the doctor's talks.

@@Niki15 I'm having the bypass August 4th. I know a week can seem forever. I had my one on one scheduled for today and it was postponed, definitely can be upsetting as it interferes with our plans but it'll all work out you'll see.

kmoeko - good luck!! I feel like a liquid diet would be a lot better then the way that my diets going right now that I'm on ???? I have 1200 cal a day and then I must stay under 120 g of carbs no more than 20 g of fat and I have to eat roughly 75 to 85 g of Protein, I have to read every single label and see if it meets the criteria now I have to add up all the calories and decide can I have that will fit into my daily meal plan or no seriously shopping just went from roughly an hour to about six hours!!

      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?
