June 29th Bypass Surgery
Arianna0228 replied to smrogg's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
No setbacks or issues going on here. Things are going really well. Losing has slowed down, but is still happening. I've lost about 35% of myself (about 118 pounds) at this point. -

I'm actually at the weight my drivers license says, lol. Which for the record I never told them that weight, they just picked one and put it down. But I'm down from my highest weight right at 100 pounds, and from my surgery down 65 pounds about. At 250ish right now. Oh and I never used to get hit on... happened 3 times this week, lol. I guess a different aura is emitted from me when I feel more comfortable. -

It really depends on what I'm eating. If I'm eating soup or something like yogurt, I'm probably closer to 1/2 cup. If I'm eating something of more substance, it's probably closer to 1/4 cup -

I'm doing good, I've lost about 38 pounds since surgery and a total of about 61 since my first appointment with the surgeons office -

Losing weight problems: I sleep on my side and now have to sleep with a pillow between my legs because a parent of all places my fat on my inner knees wanted to go away first. Now the bones of my knees hit each other when laying down and it hurts. Haha -

Actually I lied, the about 25 pounds down is from day of surgery, not the preop -

I'm the same way Kel, I'll crave something so bad, then once I have a taste I'm good. And I'm down about 25 pounds from prep diet ... but about 65 down from my highest weight last year. -

So one thing that has happened to me... may be a little tmi, haha. I haven't had a regular period in like 7 years or so to the point where I would go a year and a half without one ect. Well I had one right after the surgery, and then right at a month later.... so looks like that's starting to turn around -

Too fast, too big of bites, and don't chew enough is usually the cause from what my team told me. But there are just retain foods that your body doesn't want to deal with too I think -

I tried tuna a few days ago... didn't sit well with me. It seems like with me I still can't having anything more than a cream of wheat consistency and keep it down. -

Oh, the Buffalo chicken meatballs sound delicious.... do you have a recipe or something somewhere? And the only time I get nauseous is when I eat something that my body just does not like. -

My doc and nurse practitioner specifically told me no more than walking until after 4 weeks. But I've been walking a lot. At my job I walk 8-10 miles/night -

Yes! I didn't lose any for like a week, but the last 3 days or so I've been down every day. So I think it might just be the first plateau because our bodies are still in shock -

My days are getting better and better. I'm not nearly as tired as I was the first week. And from the surgery I'm down about 15 pounds so far. And that's really just from last Friday because that is the first day after surgery that I was actually back to my surgery weight. 15 pound off in a week... I'll take it.
