I am starting my pre-op diet Wed., fun fun! Shall be interesting how the two weeks go. Got my Decaf coffee and Keurig ready, Vitamins, even bought a Brita Water filtration pitcher to ensure I keep hydrated.

Yes actually I bought baby spoons and a baby plate that has 3 different slots and I'm so happy I did the spoons help me keep to just a little taste of Jello. Because even when you are on that diet you still take big bites sometimes that helps you not do so

Yay! Found out my insurance company approved and cleared me for gastric bypass surgery this Thursday, July 28th. What a relief, whew! I have heard horror stories where people find out they were not approved by insurance company the day before or day of surgery. I have 4 more days, excited and nervous, but excited about the journey. How is everyone else doing?

I had my RNY bypass on the 21st. I feel great! Still a little gassy, but when it moves somewhere uncomfortable I move around then it moves and I'm back to ok. Luckily had some bowel movements on day two and that helped a lot!

That's great Harsha! I remember having horrible gas pains after my hysterectomy. After you have a bowel movement it helps, and also the gas-x film that melts on your tongue helped. I actually picked some up today in preparation. How is going with energy and food?

      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
