I've read where people say they've lost that much during the pre-op diet. Maybe you can test your "will power" a little early?

I deff can what all can I eat?

Sent from my SM-G920R4 using the BariatricPal App

Protein 60-80grams per day (2-3shakes)

At least 64 ounces of Water daily

Clear liquids- all you want but no sugars (Jello, popsicles, low sodium broths, no caffeine teas, lemon Water w/ cayenne pepper pinch, etc)

All the leafy green veggies you want

*on rough days add 3oz meat Protein to dinner (tilapia, salmon, lean meats, etc)

Eat protein first during meals, drink shakes to "feel full', drink fluids all day.

I was just denied by Aetna due to weight gain. My doctor did a peer to peer appeal and they didnt overturn it. So Im waiting to see what the doctor says and whats my next step. I started birth control around the same time I went for my initial visit and I think that is the main reason that I had a lot of weight gain.

So sorry to hear about your denial. Hope everything works out. Keep us updated.

A total weight gain? Like you weighed more at your final weigh in than you did when you started? Or did you gain a pound or so while doing your weigh ins?

I started my consulation in May and my first weigh in was at 225. Around the same time I got on birth control. I delayed going to my doctor because I wasnt sure if I was going to do it. When I went back in late July I had gained like 12 lbs. It was so hard to lose it during my pre-diet. My last weigh in was at 242.

      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

      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... :(
