January 2020 Surgery Date

No I haven’t. I loved the premier protein before surgery so I never tried anything after I found that. But I will definitely give it a try. Thanks for the suggestion! -

I am really just focusing on getting all my fluids in. I do a lot of crystal light with water. I have been struggling with the protein piece of it. The premier protein shakes make me sick to my stomach. I try to get 1 shake in and make up the rest of the protein with Greek yogurt. As far as exercise I am not doing anything more than walking my dog in our neighborhood. I wouldn’t stress about being stuck I’ve heard that the 3-week stall is very common. -

11 days post op and down 22lbs and back in the 100’s for the first time in years. I’m in shock. I still have a long way to go but I’m so happy right now. I won’t lie I have moments where I question my decision because this is probably one of the hardest things I’ve ever done, but I know I’m doing this to live a long healthy life. -

Hi all! Hope everyone is doing well! I am officially 8 days post op and feeling pretty good! Am down 20lbs from the start of my 1 week pre op liquid diet which is insane to me! I am going back to work on Monday and I actually can’t wait. I love my house but I’m getting sick of it to be honest. Good luck to everyone starting their journeys and congrats to everyone post op! -

I didn’t end up throwing up thankfully. They gave me medication for the nausea that helped a lot. I don’t have a lot of pain. Just a bit of pressure. I would say pain is maybe a 3-10 -

Surgery went well yesterday. A little nausea when I woke up in recovery but other than that I can’t complain. Finally got some liquids in today. I was discharged a little while ago and now I’m home recovering. Good luck to anyone who’s surgery is coming up you got this! and congratulations to anyone who’s already had it! -

I’m having surgery tomorrow morning 8:30am! It seems I’ve developed a stress rash. Has this happened to anyone else? I don’t even feel stressed. -
