My date is may 13. Going to texas. Really want this to be done already. What are you all focusing on 6 weeks out. I am trying to focus on drinking Water. starting Protein. eating slower. So far knowing I am having the surgery is causing me to eat more not less.

Where in Texas? I'm in Austin. My surgery is also about 5 or 6 weeks out, its scheduled for May 17th but I'm trying to reschedule for the 10th.

I am working on drinking water throughout the day, testing recipes for the liquid phase, and I'm making sure to take a good amount of Vitamins so that all my blood levels are good going into surgery in case they drop in the first few weeks due to not getting enough nutrition in while I'm learning a new way of eating. I also want to make sure I am really hydrated in case I fall down on getting enough water the first few weeks too.

I'm scheduled for May 17 in Cedar Park, TX! Who is your surgeon?

Hello everyone:

I had my surgery on May 9th. I have yet to tell my family. My husband knows, my best friend knows, a lady who had the surgery knows and my one of my cousins knows that I trust not to say anything knows. Other than that I have yet to tell anyone else in my family because when I first mentioned it to my parents they immediately started to criticize and tell me that would be the biggest mistake of my life. I also did not want to have to explain myself.

I have lost some weight since the 9th but it has been slow which is fine. I probably won't see my family until the holiday which is far away.

I have my ups and downs with my relationship with my stomach and trying to work on my relationship with food. I hope with time the ups will far outnumber my downs.

@@Suga Renique Reborn it's wait 30 minutes after drinking before eating , don't take more than 30 minutes to eat , and wait 30 minutes after you eat to drink.

      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...

      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
