And May is such a pretty month! You'll be able to do your exercising in the sunlight on green grass with flowers all around. And summer will be easier because you're not as big as you were last year. Good times and good things ahead, my friends![emoji14][emoji304][emoji13]

Hi! I am May 14 and feeling incredibly excited! My pre-op diet is only 2 days (sat+sun before Monday surgery) but lately I’ve considered following others and doing a 1 or 2 week liquids plan? I’m terrified my liver will be too big to operate on. What does your pre-op diet look like?

I haven' had my preop nutrition appointment yet. It is on 4/26. At that point it will only be two weeks until surgery....I'm hoping for a week but will do whatever he says.

I’m having bypass May 7...I was nervous/excited...then I too went through the phase where I wanted to eat...I had to lose 10% of my weight to get approved, I did that fine...now I have my pre op with my primary dr on Thursday and my weight is up a little and I’m nervous...my weight is not supposed to be up at all during this time...I’m thinking of opting out of getting weighed...the only weight that matters will be next week at my surgical pre op...

I'm scared to get on the scale now, but I guess I really need to know where I am so that I can get my act together.. I' pretty sure they won' cancel after insurance approval, but I most certainly don' want to be the one who gained weight either.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      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...
