3 month post op with pictures!



Recommended Posts

Hello everyone! I officially hit the 3 month post op mark the other day and wanted to share a photo! On March 17th (3 month anniversary), I weighed and had lost exactly 60 lbs, which I was thrilled with! Clothes are falling off (amazing) and I have gone from a size 22 and am now wearing size 14!!! I think it's been 6 years since I have been able to wear this size and luckily I saved nice jeans and all of my business suits from the Limited that I couldn't handle getting rid of so I now have a good selection of clothes for awhile! I knew they would come in handy one day! ;) It feels like years ago that I had the surgery... Can't believe it's only been 3 months! To anyone out there contemplating whether or not to have the surgery, DO IT!!! I'll post more pics in a month or so!

I have been walking on my treadmill or going to the gym and getting on the elliptical for cardio work. If I'm at home, I'll do my free weighs or if I'm at the gym, I'll do all of the machines! To be honest, I haven't been working out as diligently as I should have due to this horrible winter. Now that it's been nicer out, I've been walking outdoors and am going to get back into running this week!

Congratulations- you look fantastic and must feel amazing! Thank you so much for posting your pictures too. They are inspiring for me (and I'm sure for others too :-) ) especially as I'm a super fraidy cat about going under! Keep up the fantastic work.

I am supposed to have the sleeve surgery in September and I am so nervous. I am excited, but scared too. If you had it to do over again would you?

Yep, in fact my first post on this thread said to anyone contemplating surgery, DO IT!

      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.
