February 2016 sleevers?



Recommended Posts

I went to sleep at 8:30 last night after a hot bubble bath, a Protein shake, and preparing Soup for tonight's meal. My husband has taken over the kids homework (we usually work in tandem) and making dinner for the 3 of them.

I work for a company that buys groceries and we got some samples in of Quest Protein powders (individual packs and different packaging) that will hit the shelves end of February. They have a salted caramel is simply the best. I wish it was available now. I can't hardly stomach strawberry powder because of the smell. I am definitely going to enjoy having some Soup tonight.

I walk with friends 1 mile in the morning and 1 mile in the afternoon and I find myself not being able to keep up. I sure hope the tiredness ends soon. That's the worst part of this diet, well that and the lack of coffee!

Only 13 more days to go!

First day of the pre-op diet, I am so excited to start. I know it might be a struggle at times but I know I can do it. I weighed and measured myself to track my progress and am tracking my food in myfitnesspal (I've used the app forever.) The day of surgery I will repeat the process so I can track my progress.

A little shock this A.M. as Paloma called me from the hospital saying my driver would be there in 15 minutes. Turns out when I rescheduled my original appointment they forgot to cancel the fiirst one, oops.

Thank you! Sore all over like I got beat up but stomach-wise? Pretty great! Just sampled my dinner tray - chicken broth, sugar free Popsicle, lime green Jello and strawberry-kiwi Protein Shake. First time I've been awake to eat the broth hot lol. Just little bites though. They told me the Protein is most important so I saved it for last since I'm going to actually consume all of it.

So excited for all of you guys though. It's surreal to actually have gotten it done!

Third day on diet so much better. I went to bed around 9ish last night and woke up this morning around 6:00a.m. I usually go to sleep around 11pm and wake up at 5:30, so my body must have needed the rest. I had a shake for Breakfast and I am eating a Subway salad for lunch with lemon and a little balsamic on the side.

The preop diet gets a little easier. I have had headaches from the caffeine withdrawal but they are getting better, and I wasn't as tired this morning.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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... :(
