I do about 2oz of tuna salad and a laughing cow with a couple multigrain wheat thins. It is probably my favorite meal of the day.

I go for my 3 month follow op next week. First time seeing my surgeon since the week after surgery.( I live in another state) I was hoping to be down at least 50lbs but I should be between 45-50lbs I am really starting to see a difference and I feel great. Someone at work I hadn't seen in a couple months didn't even recognize at first. Totally made my day.

You look awesome! I go on Monday for my 3 month follow up. I am expecting to be down around 52-55 pounds. I feel great and had great bloodwork report recently from my primary doctor.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! You look BEAUTIFUL!! I have 8 pounds to my first 100. I hope to make it before my 3 month appointment in a couple weeks. I have kind of stalled the past few days, so I may not make it for the doc, but I WILL MAKE IT!! Life is great!

Had my three month post op appointment today and my surgeon is very pleased - huge weight off my shoulders! Said I have lost almost 45% of my excess weight which is where most patients are at four to five months out! I was concerned because I was only down 55ish pounds - but be said they look at percentage not total pounds - and reminded me to quit comparing myself to others.

Hi all,

This is my 3month pic next to a picture I took a couple of weeks after I decided to get the surgery in Jan/Feb. I am down 76lbs total since then, 46 of that was post op at my 3 month appt last week. It's has been a roller coaster but I am still glad I did it! Thanks for being my friends here. You have been my rock!

      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.
