How long did it take to lose 100lbs
BostonWLKC replied to Yo-yo girl's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I’m at 90 lbs (woot!).... just over 6 months -
I get “don’t lose anymore weight, you won’t look good.” Some even ask my weight and then say something like “oh you look like you weigh less than that.” Um ok. I think that’s the reaction to seeing the rapidness of WLS I just crossed into normal BMI and goal is the middle of the range. I don’t think that’s crazy.

Tried Premier Protein Peaches and Cream and Cookies and Cream
BostonWLKC replied to Creekimp13's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
I like the vanilla, chocolate, caramel and cookies and cream. The cookies and cream one IS really sweet but a sip or two in its ok :) Still the better shake out there -
For me.... I couldnt drink cold water for a while. Still don’t like it (cold shakes were ok) Try hot water (decaf tea)- workd for me

Congratulations- that’s a great accomplishment! I’m sure things will go so much easier for surgery with one less thing to work on then! Next up... caffeine :). Wicked headaches for abt 2 weeks -

Did anyone else’s doctor tell them a pre-op diet is not necessary?
BostonWLKC replied to Elle_Woods's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I didn’t have to either. Just shakes and liquids for 1-2 days before to get food out of my stomach. -
Back to Work Experience - When do I loose weight?
BostonWLKC replied to RaedQ's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You’ve lost 14 lbs so far since surgery day and that doesn’t count having to lose the fluid weight you had to lose when they pumped it in! That’s great! I was tired for about 3 months - sounds normal as you heal and exercise Also— may want to check with your DR .... my plan doesn’t allow for weights and strenuous exercise for at least 6 weeks. Good luck! -

concert either after surgery/ during pre op liquid diet?
BostonWLKC replied to saygrace's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Wouldn’t do either. Don’t risk the surgery by going before - you’ll be miserably hungry and irritable lol. After- no way possible. Skip it and go next year— this is worth it! -
There’s a live chat room??

Hair elastic, biotene spray... and maybe slippers unless you like those socks . Sweat pants

People who have not had your surgery yet… Don’t worry! You can figure it out and it is not so much of an issue after a while. I have zero issues so there is hope!

Let's hear some normal poop stories
BostonWLKC replied to modymatey's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Six months out and no poop woes! Just have to be careful that you’re getting enough fiber so you’re not constipated. The only time I’ve had issues is if a slight onset of dumping but that is only happened one or two times. Good luck tomorrow!
