4 Months Post Op! Update



Recommended Posts

Today I jumped on the scale and I'm down to 209! 4 months ago I was 287, and my highest was 330. It's hard because some days I don't see the difference but I would never change a thing! Through the ups and downs I am so happy with my decision to have this surgery!

You look great in your profile picture!! I eat 1/4 cup of food 3 times a day. I try not to snack

Or eat more than that! I don't see a difference either unless I look At pictures. A lot of people have told me to just keep looking at pictures and it helps you see the change!

Thank you! I think it's just a part of the process. We lose weight so fast it just takes time for our minds to catch up!

2 Fluid oz 3 times a day. Sometimes I feel like I can eat more than that and sometimes I don't even eat that. I have the same issue! Some days I feel like I am just as fat as I was before surgery and others I feel a little smaller. It just takes time and it's great to have people supporting you and telling you how good you look!

      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.
