Hi everyone, so my gastric bypass is on Tuesday 23rd April. I’m so nervous about the op but still excited. I just can’t wait to get the journey going. I’m on the 2 wk liver diet which started really bad but with only a few days to go I’ve found the will to go on.

Good luck with all those who have ops coming up this week. Stay strong and think of the future you.

Good luck! I’m having bypass on the 24th. Now that it’s so close I’m just so eager to get thru the next few days. liquid diet is not so bad for me now. But still struggling to get all the Water in. Really going to focus on that this weekend.

Tomorrow is the big day for me. I will be so glad when it is finally over. I pray that all of you who are about to have your surgery that all will go well and a speedy recovery for you all. I pray that all those who just had the surgery will have a speedy recovery as well. :)

Wow, I haven’t posted in a bit. I hope everyone is doing well.

I’ve had a lot of thoughtful considerations since my last post. Some of them upsetting and really questioning. However I’ll post more about it after I’ve been for a walk. My first walk in a very long time. I’m sweating before I’ve even started, which gets me feeling negatively towards myself. But f&$k it, I’m going for a short walk and I’ll survive. Its confronting how unfit I am.

I really hope all April sleevers pre and post op are doing ok. Big hugs to anyone in pain or scared.

I also know this is the right thing I’ve chosen to do. It’s only the beginning and I will improve physically, mentally and emotionally. Today is one day I have to make choices towards my goals. And I’ll need to write some down later so I know what I’m achieving even when it isn’t weight loss.

Much love.

      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
