I feel ya!!! I so do!!! My boss asked me if I wanted carry out today. The receptionist asked me if if I was "hangry". These fools do not understand how close they came to bodily harm. Just kidding but WOW people just really don't get it. This is HARD.

Absolutely, no one really knows unless they're in our shoes. I'm on day seven of a fourteen day clear liquid diet, surgery is next Wednesday. After, about day four or five. It's becomes more natural. I still get the urge to bite into something, then I tell myself not to give in.. Just remember why were all here. To better ourselves and to start our new journeys. I'm drinking 3 to 4 Protein shakes a day, along with flavored waters, if I feel low on sugar: I pour 1/2 cup of clear fruit (apple, grape or cranberry) juices along with 1/2 cup of Water. Also, have sugar free carmel to suck on... Good luck everyone, just one day at a time..

Im on day 3 of the liquid pre-op diet. Started on the 17th, surgery on the 31st. Surprisingly not as hungry as I thought I'd be. I drink 3.5 or 4 premier shakes a day, 1 serving of yogurt too. The yogurt helps!! I can have a 8oz glass of skim-milk but I've never really liked milk by itself.

I'd say day 1 was pretty rough but sugar free Popsicles & sugar free jell-o got me through it. 2nd day I stuck to Water, my shakes, yogurt and two cups of broth.

Im in the state of mind - keep my eyes on the prize!! I have pictures and my calendar in my fridge to keep me motivated.

We can do this!!

      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.

      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! 😞
