Kleah73,

congratulations on your success thus far. The fact that you lost some weight on your own, will give you an advantage on this journey.
I had my surgery on 8/25/19. Prior to my surgery I had lost 35 pounds over a two year period. My highest weight was 315 pounds and I cried when I saw that. My weight at surgery was 280 pounds. Today I am at 171 pounds.
I was hoping just to get to 200 pounds when I started so I am over the moon with where I am. I am so accustomed to my modified eating habits (I haven’t had a coke since 8-05-19!) and exercise routine (30 minutes minimum at least 5 days a week) that it has become routine.

Just stay positive, keep up the good work and enjoy the rewards of this new adventure.

Thank you so much...i am so happy you took the time to respond. This story is so familiar. I too thought that I would be very happy at 220..i want to be healthy and happy so I am looking forward to the outcome. I am patient and I am completely happy with the weight loss of 1 to 2 pounds a week. Slow and steady.

Almost 5 1/2 months out and down 77lbs! The first picture was taken the night before surgery and I'm thankful I have it for comparison. This Surgery has saved my life in so many ways. [emoji3059]IMG_2020-12-30_22-24-25.jpg

I just posted this in another similar thread but this one seems more current. First picture is a few months pre-op when I was 296lbs and the second picture was a few months ago (about 4 years post op) at 165. The third one is from just a couple days ago. I am at 160lbs now, 5’8” and 28 years old.

      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.
