MrsLarryH 3 Posted July 31, 2014 Mine and hubby's surgeries were on 8th and everything went smoothly. We are back home and doing quite well. One week follow up post op he was down 37 from one week pre op and I was down 27. Don't go back until end of August. So happy we made this change! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ThatCurvyGirl 19 Posted August 4, 2014 Hey all! Had my surgery July 29th. Start weight was 267 and my goal weight is 160! Love the idea of getting to know others going through similar stages! How did everyone else do with their surgeries?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Healthy for Life 11 Posted August 10, 2014 Thstcurvygirl...we are very similar. My surgery was 7-31. Starting weight 255 and goal for now is 180 because I'm 6 foot tall and then will reevaluate once I've reached that goal. Things are going good, just ready I chew on something besides Jello and Popsicles lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MB40 24 Posted October 28, 2014 I am really struggling lately. I am still losing weight and am down from 242 at start of surgery investigation, 232 before start of liquid diet, 217 at time of surgery to 174.4. The problem is I find myself hungry or thinking about food much more often than I was before. I find myself doing the non thinking just shoving of food/chocolate in my mouth. It makes me wish I had had gastric bypass so I had disgusting effects when I ate fats/sweets. As well, I am perpetually tired and irritated. I have a hard time staying awake during work, focusing, and yet when I lay down at night I have a hard time falling asleep. I want to ring my toddlers necks all the time and feel like I cannot stand them especially before that time of the month. I want to tell off random strangers for their stupidity or behavior. I live in a perpetual state of fear of turning back into my old self in regards to food addiction and regaining the weight as I have always done in the past. Has anyone else felt like this? Does anyone have any ideas? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
