4.5 month post op before and after pics



Recommended Posts

I have lost 85 lbs from my highest weight of 302. I am now 217. I went from a size 22-24 to 14-16. I feel so much better mentally and physically. I started training for a 5K run last week. It is going to be at the end of January. I am very excited. I have had a lot of support from you folks on this forum and I'd like to thank you. I have 40 lbs to goal. I will be hanging around here for a while longer.

That's fantastic about the 5k!!! My goal is to be able to run one next October. I did that particular race in 2011 and completed it in 46 tubba lubba minutes. It was really hard to do but I wanted to try and get into running. I obviously didn't keep up with it. It's so hard carrying all this weight and running. I told my physically fit sister who runs 5ks often to imagine herself running and carrying both of her boys (5 and 9 yr olds).

85 lbs is fantastic! You'll definitely lose that 40 you're trying to get rid of by running. You look phenomenal too!! Just showed my husband your before and afters and he said "wow she clearly works out!!"

      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.
