Do you remember this happening at all? I feel like I will never fell normal and start losing. Thank you for your input and encouragement and again I am so happy for you.

Honestly I didn't really try Protein that early, my doctor ordered broths and strained Soups at that point just so I Could get something down... Protein came the next week. If its not agreeing maybe try a different type?also there is an unflavored protein that I use by Isopure that you can mix into your Soups and broths. I remember feeling terrible on days 3 and 4 even though I had a great recovery it does absolutely get better but I know you're not seeing much past your pain and discomfort right now. Days 5 6 and 7 I woke up feeling remarkably better even going back to work on day 7. Good luck and I hope some of what I've said helps I'm rooting for ya!

Hi shuhn,

Oh how I hope to follow in your footsteps. I am bottom heavy. Starting weight 239, day of surgery 225 today 219. I am also 5'2" and a shortie! I'm only 4 days post op and struggling today to get fluids and Protein in and you are definitely my inspiration of the day! I feel like I've had a fairly easy recovery compared to some on here! Thanks for sharing your pics. This gives me great hope...

Best of luck on your continued success!

What always grabs me about these before & after photos is the genuine SMILE in the after photo. There's no faking the happiness that's evident in your smile.

I was like you only 3 short months ago! I'm so glad my pictures can inspire someone as all the others inspired me you will be here in NO time flat! I remember when I was just a few days out and I was wishing I was 3 months out and here I am! I can't wait to see you posting your 3 month pics! You got this

Thanks so much everyone, I really can't express how amazing it feels to be able to look in the mirror and see less of myself! I still can't believe my new wedding dress is half the size of one I ordered just a few short months ago! This is so surreal!

And amw, you are so right...I am WAY happier with myself these days!

I too am a shortie and was sleeved 2 days ago. I am feeling really good tired the first two days but was up and walking around the afternoon of my surgery. I walk around the hospital each day and am feeling goof for it. Things are a lot different here. I have to stay in for 4 days and am really being looked after very well. Am still on a drip so my fluids are great and today I have had Soup, jelly and juice as well as camomile tea. Only little bits but going down well. Very excited. Thanks or your inspiration. You look amazing.

Soooo I have an awesome update for you guys! My wedding is a little over a month away and I had to get a new wedding dress yesterday! I'm 4.5 months post op now and my new dress is a size 14 (I fit the 12 but didn't like the dress that was a 12!) and since I don't have time to order it was better to just take the corseted 14. So my previous dress was a 22!!!!!! Holy cow! I'm STOKED!

(Please ignore the weird tan, that was the ending of a horrible spray tan HA!)
