Oe, i want to say another thing. Let's do a group activity.

My challenge is this for us all: when you are on the exact date of your surgery this month, take a pic of yourself on that day and post it here.

Let us all see how far each have come in 9 months. Post a before pic as well.

I will do mine on the 17th, as i had my surgery on the 17th. If your date has already passed, please so it soon as you can!

Please please please ladies, join me in this???

I thought it was just me! I've been freaking out! I keep drinking and eating Protein, but mostly in the evenings, I feel like I need something else. I still do Greek yogurt and green tea at nite.

I haven't posted on here in forever. I had my surgery last April also and have lost 82 lbs.. The holidays were not good to me either. I was bad. I didn't gain any weight, but I sure did break all the rules. I don't even remember how many calories I'm supposed to be eating. I did start working out again today and reworked my food plan. Snacking I'd the worst for me too. I'll be checking in and posting in hopes that it keep me accountable. It feels good to be back!

Yay so glad some of you gonna join in!!

What an improvement girl, wow!!

Would like to see you all's photos!

I am going to copy a question here i just asked on the main page. In case you miss it and you can perhaps help me out with advice, please.

Friends please help me. I've been seriously constipated the last week.

Only pooped once and it wasnt a lot. It was kind of like clay and greenish in colour.

I've been having a few stool softeners, but it isnt doing the trick. Is it safe for me to take a laxative like laxa? I am 9 months post op. never had a probem like this.

Please help!!!

Tried flaxseeds as well, nothing, feel so bloated!

Miralax works pretty good. It might take a day or two. It's very gentle and it has no taste to it. You can mix it in any drink you want.

      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.
