Just got my surgery date! So excited!! I got a call from the nurse yesterday and she said since my BP has been dangerously high at the last couple visits & at the exercise physiologists visit, their going to try to move the surgery date to October if any spot comes open! Yaay!

How is everyone doing? My surgery is this Friday the 29th. I'm so nervous I've been biting people's heads off please pray for me!

Thank you so much! I'm trying to stay calm ?

Hi guys! I’m 2 months and one week post op (meant to post last week). Life is still good I’m trying to get used to my now slightly smaller frame [emoji23]. My husband looked at me the other day and said, “you can’t see you’re smaller; because I watch you and you still move like you’re 300lbs and you’re not”. I still have a big girl mind set; it really takes some time to adjust to the change in your body.

As for the my diet. I pretty much can eat whatever. I stay away from carbs as best I can. My diet mainly consist of meats and veggies and I try to keep my calorie count under 600/day for now. I recently started back at the gym and it feels good to be back. I’m excited for the new changes in my body that will come about. I’m still overly concerned with excess skin. But I’ve decided I’d much rather deal with excess skin and be able to fit in an airplane seat, than be 350lbs struggling to get out of bed each morning.

Lemon water has become my new best friend, and not that stuff you buy at the grocery store either. I’m talking about freshly squeezed lemon juice raw and unfiltered. Get you some! The benefits are incomparable, but more importantly it helps with constipation.

What a brilliant report and excellent results!!! Running to write this down to ask my surgeon tomorrow--if I'm cleared to have acids in my water at 2weeks!!! ((hugs))!!! Um, maybe it's time to see a 100lb loss in piccys. *wink wink nudge nudge* You know how we sparkleheart piccys!

Hey Fluffy Chic, I've been away for a while but I'm happy that you are having an awesome success after your RNY! Keep up the great work!I'm almost at my goal of 175. Today I weighed exactly 181. I had my RNY in September. I'm so happy and have a NEW zest for life. The weight loss really has a positive impact on my psyche! I wish the same for you!

I wonder how everyone is doing ? [emoji848] well hope everyone is ok! And loosing those pounds!
