Day 3 of the 2 PreOp Diet is no joke. I'm tired. I'm hungry. I'm realizing how much of the free and fun time I spend with my husband has something to do with food.

It is definitely shaking things up.

I'm hopeful that I will feel better by the time I go back to work on Monday. At least have gotten over the lethargy and can focus a little better.

I have made that same realization myself and I am due to have surgery jan 22nd it is a struggle. Its tough when you realize how much of your day with family revolves around food, for me it is especially as a mother with three kids, all I do is cook lol and all they care about right now is "Where's dessert?!" "Can we stop by Dairy queen after practice?!" I just keep telling myself that this is a whack-load of stuff to get used to all at once and so much info out there and anyone would be overwhelmed tired and hungry. One foot in front of the other and you will feel better the closer you get. We can do this and I'd be willing to chat anytime you like:) maybe we can inspire one another.

I'm with you both. I cannot begin to explain how I've been doing this 2 week pre-op with struggles. I'm ready for this and trying to keep my eyes on the prize.

I'm done with everything I go see my surgeon nd the rest of the team Monday January 4th then I have my surgery on January 13th I've told my family but they don't believe me so I'm in it by myself bcuz it seems like my fiancee isn't backing me up on anything anymore so I'm in it to win it for myself by myself I just pray that I don't have no fall backs good luck everyone

I'm January 13th and before I prepare for my procedure I'll be praying for those who share this date with me. I'm having trouble with my better half all of a sudden. So I figured that some insecurities set in. But, we are moving forward and good luck with everything!

I must admit that it's not easy. I try not to be around my family when they eat. I'll grab a popsicle and go in another room. A friend at work does it with me, I believe it's easier when I'm away from home or keeping myself busy. What about you?

We totally should encourage each other. I don't have kids, but I have a husband who relies.on me a lot to cook and plan our meals. The last few days have been a huge shift. We will figure this out, be successful, and have healthier families!

      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! 😞
