I will be 3 months out on 2/20. Feel great, but have had pneumonia for the last 3 weeks. Other than that, I'm doing really well. Have lost 42 lbs hoping for 50 by the 3 month mark, but probably am going to come up a bit short since I was on steroids for a few days. Go to the gym 5 days working on my Couch 2 5k project so all is good right now. Never had a day of nausea, never have thrown up. Sticking to plan that my nutritionist and I drew up together. Just wish I had done it a long time ago.

I feel great. 7 almost 8 weeks out. Surgery went great. Down almost 50 pounds from highest weight. 32+ since surgery 12/19. I have RA and degenerative disc disease that I am under treatment for so I exercise but can't do it as intense as others and am on hold from lifting weights. But I'm very satisfied with my progress. Have gone from size 18 jeans to 12 since operation. I got sick from an allergic reaction to something cause I broke out in hives and had nausea/ vomiting & the big "D" but not surgery related. I posted about but doc says no worries and I feel great two days after. Is all good!

      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.
