I’m doing okay (it’s only been 4 days lol) but I’m craving something not sweet
And also, I really just want actual food 🫣🥴😂

What is everyone thinking about for their first puréed foods? I’m a picky eater and honestly hate mushy textures so I’m trying to get ideas for puréed foods I can handle… only 4 more days!

I have 4 more days to go too. I can’t wait! I see refried Beans and guacamole on my list. That’s what I’m starting with!

Hey Neka same here woke up with intense pain, I honestly didn’t expect the pain to be so intense… I took my last pain killer tonight and I’m terrified for tomorrow, I’m using a heating pad now which is bringing some comfort, have you found anything that helps the pain?

Hey Maggie! Sorry you’re not feeling well either. I’ve been alternating between a cold compress and a heating pad. Currently using the heating pad as well. I wish I had a better solution. But walking around does help me a bit as well. Btw what type of pain killers were you prescribed? My doc prescribed children’s Tylenol which has done nothing. So they switched me to XS Tylenol which also isn’t helping 😭😭

I really didn't think that I was going to feel like I'm deprived of food, but I've never felt more hungry now than I have ever felt in my life I'm on stage 2 of recovery and I want a taste of food I can't wait just to nibble on a soft scrambled egg. But right now I just froze 20 oz cups of Protein

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      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!!
