@@mokt my father has been very supportive! He knows that its something that I really want to do! ????My mother hasn't been as supportive as in would like so as I approach my date of surgery I haven't been keeping her in the loop ???? my boyfriend knows and I don't plan in telling anyone. I totally agree with the no negative vibes! ???????????????? All of my coworkers no and they have been encouraging me along the way so that helps a lot too!

My surgery local. Which is good! I don't wanna travel anywhere! ????????

@@queencity we should definitely keep in touch! All support is welcomed ???? positive vibes only ????

Yes, most definitely keep in touch. I will let you know how my surgery went and also how i am doing with my preop liquid diet. I know most people would have a food funeral but i chose to eat a delicious but healthy dinner :).

Anyone else fighting the "I want to eat everything I can get my hands on" blues?? Had a small binge episode yesterday. Made me realise that I HAVE to get this surgery. All week I've been thinking, maybe I can just drinks shakes like I used to and get this weight off. Then, boom, one uncontrollable binge while no one is looking. It wasn't that bad, but it was still a binge. Thanks for "listening" as no one else really understands.

@all4him. I completely know what you are going through. I am going through it now as well. I was just thinking that maybe I didn't need this surgery that maybe I could do this on my own and hen next thing you know I am eating everything in sight. Good news I stopped quickly after starting but I really realize that I can't do this on my own. I need help. Hang in there!

My surgery is on the 10th, as well. I started my pre op liquid diet last Tuesday, two weeks out. I got on the scale this morning and I have lost 10 pounds! I am shocked!! So I have another week of liquids, one day of Clear Liquids the day before surgery and NPO after midnight the night before. What if my doctor says I've lost too much weight, I don't need to do this surgery now? What if my BMI falls below 35? I'm starting to panic that he's going to say I should just lose the final 70 pounds on my own. I'm talking crazy in my head!!!

Hello,

mine is November 9th! Also scared and happy at the same time. A little nervous because i had to be on the liquid diet for 4 weeks and i've cheated every now and then. Hoping that my surgery will be successful and wont have to reschedule. Any advise on losing extra fat on the liver in a short amount of time?

      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
