Last day of pre-op Protein shakes/salads today, two days of Clear Liquids ahead, then the big day on Monday! I feel like it's almost Christmas!

My date is Jan. 25, and I'm definitely apprehensive taking this life-changing step, but excited too. Just to make it extra nerve-wracking, we are in the middle of the biggest snowstorm in years! Hoping the docs can get to the hospital on Monday! :unsure:

EEEEK! Day after tomorrow is the big day! Getting excited to be on the downside of this journey! I tell myself all I have to do is go to sleep, and when I wake up it will all be over! Not nervous, but maybe if you ask me tomorrow night I'll be singing a different tune! LOL

So, just got a call from the hospital. Tomorrow is NOT the big day anymore! My surgeon was at a conference last week, and apparently he had travel issues getting back to CT because of the snow we had over the weekend. I am so not happy right now! I won't know when it's going to be rescheduled until I call his office in the morning. Grrr!!

Hello! Glad to find this group! I was sleeved on January 20. Feeling good 5 days out. Tough to get in all the fluids and Protein. I am on 2 weeks of full liquids, 4 weeks puréed, 2 weeks soft solids and then back to regular food in March. I have seen so many different progressions of post op diets on the forums.

I had my surgery on Wednesday 1/20. I'm down 9 more lbs in 5 days...54 total from my heaviest. My post op diet is going great. Getting in my fluids and I haven't had any issues. So thankful!

Hey January peeps! After the snow fiasco that got my surgery postponed on 1/25, I've been rescheduled to Monday, February 1. So I think I'll head on over to the February group. Hope you all are doing well...see you on the loser's bench real soon!

I had my two week post op check up today. I'm feeling really good. Nothing hurts, no nausea etc. Dr Shadle said I could eat "anything" now and I don't need puréed foods anymore. I made three bean salad for dinner haha. Funny, the things I crave. Salmon. A green salad. I'm going carefully with small bites and lots of chewing.

@@SactoWendy! I know how you feel! My doctor gave me the green light to progress as comfortable (from liquid to mushies to crispies to regular), and I'm just 12 days out.

Tried half a scrambled egg today. I got full before half of the half portion was gone. Which is so crazy to me because I can finish a 4oz yogurt in like 30min but couldn't finish the eggs (which I measured out at 1T/ half an ounce).

      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?

      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
