Day of surgery 246.9. One year out I was (to the day) 171 so down 75 pounds. But, I really look at my high weight which was end of April 2017 at least the recorded weight - 271.5 I think I was higher at points, but didn't get on the scale and my weight now - at 14 months out at 166. I'm down 105 pounds.

In an average day I eat about 1,000 calories with 60-90 grams of Protein, and 64 ounces of Water minimum. I usually start with a shake (fairlife skim, Protein Powder and 1/2c fruit for 35 g. protein), lunch is usually 3 oz grilled chicken with a salad and dinner is whatever the family is eating. Snacks are usually Oikos Triple Zero yogurt, fruit or cheese. I eat a pretty normal diet. Best of luck to you.

High weight was 257 and now I am 147 as of today (surgery was 10/21/16). As far as food, Water and Protein intake go, I am not the best person to ask, I am still considered anorexic. I eat about 1 to 2 small meals a day. Just make sure you get what you need!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
