TLawre2 30 Posted May 23, 2014 To Jtickle I like your updated photo how much weight have you lost? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jtickle 295 Posted May 23, 2014 I have lost about 20 pounds. My surgeon will cancel surgery if you gain weight before hand. So I set a goal for myself to be under 300 on the day of my surgery. I only have a few pounds to go and my surgery isn't for another 33 days. I think I am doing pretty good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LoseIt4Ever 14 Posted May 23, 2014 My surgery is scheduled for June 3. I start the liquid diet tomorrow. I'm trying not to obsess about the liquid diet or the surgery, but instead trying to focus on the new life that awaits me. I told my office friends I may be a little cranky next week if I'm struggling with the hunger. Good luck to everyone having surgery soon! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Loveskinnyme 41 Posted May 24, 2014 Well, I just stepped on the scale for the first time in two weeks and I'm down seven pounds, despite the food funerals I've been having in anticipation of my all liquid diet starting this Thursday. I'm jumping for joy because I had gained 15 pounds in a month after a medication switch. I was worried they might cancel my surgery. Sooooo- YAY!! Lol.

Drummergirl505 7 Posted May 24, 2014 To drummergirl- I have to do a 2 wk liquid diet my dr wants me to lose at least 10lbs before surgery. I have a band right now they took all my Fluid out Monday and its amazing what I can eat right now. I will start liquids exactly 2 wks before no sooner lol. I have my pre-op class on the 29th. When do you start liquids? TLawre2- I start liquids in two days, I am nervous about it but hope that I will do it without messing up! I have read how hard it is to do...but I will do the best that I can. I still haven't gotten my insurance approval, I am afraid I will do all this and then get denied. Oh well I will just do the diet and hope for the best. I bet you are excited for the pre-op class!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jtickle 295 Posted May 24, 2014 My hubby and I were talking last night and he wants to have WLS too. He has already been to a seminar in March. I am so excited for him. Heck I am excited that we will both be getting healthy together. Can't wait for him to go his first appointment. 1 amc2014 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
