Vyxsin69 reacted to feelin-lika-cow in January 2013 Post Op
Just a quick note to all Jan post ops.....As I sit & recall exactally where I was 3 months ago today - lying on that gurney about to undergo my life changing event - then think where I was before my 2 week pre op...oh frightening!! I am sooo grateful to have had this done! So I'm not a cook, u don't lose as fast as a 25 yr old but I'm me & I wouldn't trade it for the world. I hope you all can look back & have this insite as well. The more u have to lose the greater loss u will have weekly as it requires more calories to maintain those higher weights. If ur slowing about now, it's cause ur body doesn't require those mass amounts of calories anymore so it's suppose to be a slower loss, congratulate yourself that you have come to this point!!! I'm celebrating my 3 month today at beauty shop : ) pics to follow I promise! Have a great one all....PS Not feelin like a cow so much anymore : )

That would be great! Walking buddies would be a great option. Be proud of your weight loss no matter the number. It's not easy so be proud. Congrats on the 2 months!!!
My email is jt4bsb@hotmail.com
We can keep in touch and plan a walking buddy thing when you're ready!

Hello Everyone. I have been reading through the posts and I wanted to join in. My surgery date was 1/24/13. My starting weight was 311 and Day of surgery was 308.5 (that darn colon cleanse). Today I am 282. Loving the choice I made and look forward to getting to know some of you. You seem to be a very supportive and uplifting crowd.

I'm doing good. Feel really good today. I walked mt Rubidoux yesterday morning and a mile at night. Feels good to have the energy to be semi active.
How are you? How post op are you? I'm 8 months in a week:) my biggest struggle has been Water and Protein and because I have the worlds worst schedule for everything my exercise has been effected. But I'm committed to myself and work out or walk at all time possible.

Hi Ladies,
As I always said it is good to have friends!! I live in Florida about 50 miles south of Tampa. I have lived here for almost 3 years and I am orginally from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. I used to work for a company in Dallas, Texas and I miss all my Texas girlfriends they were the best and we had so much fun. I am having my surgery next Monday, March 11th I am so scared and yet I know I need this so I can get my quality of life back. Lets all stay in touch this is a great support group.

Vyxsin69 reacted to michelecaples in how long after the surgery does it take Weightloss?
I hate to be brutally honest, but pizza, wings, and that are not allowed for a reason. Tthis early out they can kill you . Please stick to your plan. Complications are not pretty. There are some on here that are on feeding tubes from complications. Take the steps your doctor gave you and you will be satisfied. I am 5 months out and cant even eat the foods you are eating. Also if you break the horses back, he will never get up to speed. You wont lose if you keep having sodium and fat as a staple. Concentrate on Water and shakes, if you are still hungry call your surgeon or nutritionist for ideas. Your stomach is like a brabd new baby in every way. You start off feeding it formula. Noone gives a brand new baby pizza and wings. Then you progress. The healthier foids you give yourself the more you will become the woman you want.to be. Be kind to your baby belly. Think about it like that when it cries for food. Give that baby what it needs. Not what everyone else is having.

Vyxsin69 reacted to raquelrdgz in Protein
I've been told yes, liquid are liquids so they count along with your waters, teas, coffees ect. At the beginning I thought Water was Water and I had to drink 64oz on top of anything else which I was like - good lord, I'm float away lol -
PS I was also told that if you drink coffee you have to add a cup of water for every oz of coffee you drink but, I haven't confirmed if that's the truth--

But be careful it can stick to your stomach, I was admitted yesterday bc it didn't sit well with me and my doctor says just be careful , everyone's different so def be cautious when eating it, I just kept throwing everything up , I had surgery 1-21-13 here is what my nut gives us now and before the 1 month , still on strict liquid diet

I tried the premade chocolate Premier Protein shakes from Sam's (they sell them at costco too). They're good, rich and not chalky, 160 cal for 30g of protein and 11oz liquid. I also take a bottle Water, mix in an orange crystal light (or target/wal-mart brand) with a scoop of vanilla whey Protein Powder from GNC. Tastes a lot like a lighter version of an orange juilious or orangesicle ice cream bar. Can even add ice if you like. It's 140 cals, 16.9oz liquid and 20g of protein.
