@Creekimp always has helpful info on this as her team prepared her VERY well about rate of loss etc VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169

I think you should reach out to your team for clarity and ask where you could be weight wise. People with lower BMIs tend to lose slower and at lower rates and not everyone will lose all the weight they plan. VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169

RNY or VSG?VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169

So at the end of this all I may be 5 f-ing 2! VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169

By the Surgeon, did they give you any figures or ideas of where they would like to see you by this point? VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169

Probably because they have access to the machine and want to make advances in the industry by using it more often. If it was offered to me. I wouldn't have turned it down. VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169

How much was anticipated by this point? VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169

Can you photo journal a day in your food life? That would super interesting? I cannot pictures 500 cals of food... I've been up too high for too long... VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169

This info blows... My mind VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169

500 or less! I would love to see your menu! VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169

Hi there, Not all nutrition is created equal, can you give us a sample of your daily menu and what your daily activities look like also. Believe or not it all factors in! VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169

Bowel movements... How's those looking? VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169

Hi there, how are you doing? VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169

I just want you to know that I was up late last night squatting , frantically... VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169

Sounds awesome, any YouTube videos of this specific doctor using it? VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169

Thank you!Visualize it. Really think about it , what you will look like, smiling, posing for photos with friends, on a balcony in a white dress in Jamaica at sunset, torches everywhere... Or sitting on a couch with a cozy now oversized Celtic knit sweater on the couch reading and drinking tea That's what I did I swear. Helps me focus. VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169

Thanks, they work with a pharmacologist (I think that's her title) on staff who adjusts meds ahead of the surgery with your other providers very cohesive,the booklets and folders are thoughtfully executed. My surgery was at a hospital rated as a center of excellence (whatever that entails) I have yet to find a single fault in their system yet, in fact I'm going to a support group tonight, so I'll get more info and report back.

Perhaps it was meant as eating a minimum of one hour after waking instead of immediately after waking to promote hydration first. Def check with NUT for clarity.I ALWAYS wake and hydrate despite hunger even before wls, I can't remember the reasons but my mother instilled this in us. Something about needing Water more than food (old world stuff) I wake and drink water, tea coffee, shake, whatever else then wait a min of 30 mins and move on to breakfast. No rush I sometimes drink multiple things slowly and breakfast is at 11am. I let my body guide me. VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169

I'm trying I promise

Diversified sources, not just chicken lol

Got it, my inflammation from surgery has subsided I am able to consume more solids, the NUT warned me that they would want me to get all of my protein from food and I didn't think it possible until I looked at my macros for yesterday and I was at 160! I had 2 protein shakes, totally unnecessary. VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169

How far out from surgery are you? VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169
