1 Month Post Op Progress Photos



Recommended Posts

So as of today I am 1 month and 2 days Post Op. Here are some photos. Have lost only 17 pounds since surgery and total 36 pounds to include pre surgery. I know I should be happy but for some reason I thought I'd lose more than that.Been at a stall lately. My co-workers said it looks like I'm losing inches faster than pounds and can definitely see a difference. On a good note my size 28 LB jeans are super baggy and I just slipped on my Right Fit size 6 LB Jeans (have no idea what a size 6 equivs to) today that I haven't worn in a year woohooooooo.

Hoping to see more pounds come off before my big trip in August!

17 pounds in a month sounds pretty darned good. That is more than four pounds a week!

Congrats! You're doing great! Please, remove the word "only" in front of the number of pounds you've lost. You've lost an ENTIRE 17 pounds in a month! That's FANTASTICCCCCCC!!! Could you have done that before? NOPE, not without starving yourself to death and white-knuckles the whole time.

Enjoy this journey. It may be slower than you expect, but you WILL get there. :)

Good luck!!

      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.
