Hey! I stumbled across this.. Watched the videos. Very nicely done! I'm 26 too. For some reason I didn't expect there to be as many people around my age on here.... (Maybe its because in my head I'm still that baby faced 18 year old lol) anyway.. I subscribed and am looking forward to more videos!

Thanks man I appreciate it!! And yes girls definitely rock the guys on here lol. Yeah I wanted it to be a little shorter and plus I was a little nervous too but I'm glad I did it. I just wanted to see what people had to say about it and hopefully help people.

Amine you will definitely inspire other people! I had my surgery six months ago and I started a diary when I started my preop diet and wrote in it everyday. It is interesting, funny, sad and uplifting to read how I felt then and now. You rock and I think it's a great idea! As soon as I can get subscribed to your videos I will! Your probably feeling a little week right now but I can tell you the other side is great!! Look forward to hearing from you!

The very best thing for that gas is gas x STRIPS. They work wonders quickly. Welcome to the other side !

Following your videos Amine..really enjoy them. Not sure how to subscribe to them or I would.CONGRATS not only on your awesome weight loss but also quitting smoking!! You are already feeling better I can tell. I hope your dad is feeling better I am 7 months post op and down 70 pounds...when I went under 200pounds I danced a jig in my bathroom! I have 50 more to go but I feel so much better and the compliments sure do boost my self esteem which has been non Existent and/or dormant! Keep up the good work. I need help getting motivated ..need some inspiring words to start exercising. I am so tired when I come home from work I just don't feel like doing it. I have no excuse because I have a treadmill and weights in my garage...help!

Thanks NTA I really appreciate you tuning in! I try my best to talk straight but I get so nervous and think I sound stupid!! I'm so glad I quit smoking and it feels so good to be able to breathe again! My dad is doing a ton better and hes quit smoking for almost 3 weeks now!

I am feeling a ton better for sure and I feel better than ever and have a smile on my face all the time! I have gotten a lot of stares and man you look good!! in the past few weeks and it just motivates me to do more. I'll be 4 weeks post op this Tuesday!! The biggest things that have motivated me is watching other peoples journeys on YouTube and just looking back at how I was in the past 7+ years. I also want to run a 5k at some point and I have started the training last week.

You just need to find the time if you live a pretty busy lifestyle! Just start out slow and then work your way up and don't try to overdo it!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
