Need Accountability And Support? I Want To Help



Recommended Posts

Hello Everyone. My name is Erica but in the social media world I go by the name Bariatric Butterfly. I’m a WLS Sister who had the Duodenal Switch in 2009. At my highest I weighed 399 lbs. On the day of surgery I weighed 384 lbs. Surgery got me down to roughly 210 lbs or so, but I managed to get myself back up to 230 lbs before getting real with myself. As of today, I’m weighing in at 164 lbs and have been able to maintain for a while all without starving and drinking shakes all day every day.

Throughout my journey I’ve been asked many times how I’ve managed to maintain a healthy lifestyle and continue to be successful so many years out. I would say perseverance, dedication and commitment to myself regardless of the circumstances. So many have asked about working with me. I didn't want to do it unless the time was right and I had something of value, substance and structure to bring to offer.

Well, I am excited to announce that I am working on a 30 day online program that offers fitness, nutritional, and lifestyle coaching to post weight-loss surgery (WLS) women who are at-least 18 months post op.. Since this is a new program and I have some kinks to work out, I’m looking to work with 8 women for 30 days beginning 04/01 in exchange for both a written and recorded testimony. I want to ensure that the 8 women I select are serious and committed to PERMANENT lifestyle changes.

Here’s what you can expect:

- Daily check-ins for accountability

- Weekly shopping list

- Weekly workouts with videos (gym or home)

- Weekly diet

- Weekly skype or zoom q&a

- Lifestyle modification tips

- Direct access to me via WhatsApp

- Private group community

I don’t subscribe or promote quick weight-loss or any reset diets. If this is what you’re looking for then this is not the program for you. I’m for changing the mind to achieve weight loss success. If you’re ready to make the commitment and get off the yo-yo wagon for good, let’s chat to see if this is the right program for you.

      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!!
