My husband and I had surgery on July 22, and we've been taking monthly photos in the same clothes to see our progress. We put the 3 month photos next to the pre-op photos, and we could really tell a nice difference, so we decided to share. He has lost 72 lbs., and I have lost 62 lbs. We are loving our sleeves thus far, and it's nice to be able to do this together!post-57736-13813667750407_thumb.jpg post-41407-13813667750807_thumb.jpg post-41407-13813667751572_thumb.jpg post-41407-1381366775225_thumb.jpg

Hi there, you are both looking great, what a brilliant weight loss for both of you and in such a short time too !

I have around the same amount to loose and it is so encouraging to see how well you are doing.

I am due to have my surgery Dec 7th.

Keep up the good work both of you and thanks for the inspiration.

Best wishes

Thanks to everyone for all the sweet replies. It's so nice to feel good about yourself every once in awhile! I can't wait to see how the rest of this journey goes. So far I'm enjoying it. I always wish I could lose faster (I'm surely not the only one), but when I see how far I've come in 3 months, I realize I never have been able to do this before, and things are really progressing well. It's great to have support from people like you who have been there. Thanks again!

FANTASTIC! I really see a ton of change in both of you. That is so wonderful!!! I did this with my hubby too and so glad we did it together. Not just for the basic things like eating the same way and exercise, but being able to really understand what each other is going through and help through the harder spots. Hubby has been a blessing to me through this, as I've been in a plateau lately and he is keeping me sane :) I also try to encourage him to exercise more. Being able to do this together is such a blessing! Best of luck to you guys, you are doing great!!

My husband and I did this together as well. We actually did the surgery 2.5 weeks apart because of the kids. I went first and he has already lost more than me!!! Men are so lucky. We are saving so much money on food costs alone!!!! You guys are looking great!!!!!!

      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.
