I've seen a few other May dates, but wanted to open this up for anyone scheduled for the 16th to check-in, gripe, vent, etc. Good luck to everyone!

I think I left nervous behind last week and am now bordering on near-hysteria, though I'm pretty prone to anxiety...just keep thinking about all the reasons you decided to do this and how much healthier and happier you'll be in a few short months. I'll never say it's going to be easy, but we both know it'll be worth it. Deep breath lady, you've got this.

Hey, lady. Yes, I am 3 days post op and doing much better. Pain is tolerable, full liquids started today and I don't seem to be having some of the side effects others have reported so far, so I really can't complain. I hope you're feeling better as well?

Today has been much better. I have been able to drink a little more than sips, I ate almost a full snack pack cup of SF Jello, and 1/2 cup of beef broth. I haven't had any pain meds since Wednesday. I will be on to full liquids Sunday, and hopefully start hitting my Protein goals.

I'm down 10 pounds since surgery. Started full liquids today. Drank a couple of Protein Shakes and ate some sugar free cheesecake flavored pudding. I can drink multiple big sips. Incisions just itching. Started to rubbing neosporin on them to help cut down on thickness of the scars hopefully.

      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
