1 year post op w/pictures



Recommended Posts

So today marks one year since my journey started. My HW was 303 and my CW is 201. I went from a size 24 to 14-16. This journey has been very bumpy and emotional for me. I've had some good days, and bad days! I haven't lose any weight in months and it cause me to get stressed out. I started slacking in my exercising, and eating stuff I had no business eating because I'm a emotional eater. I feel hunger all the time now, and I find myself eating way more than I could before. I even gained 9lbs back... Which sucks!!!! I don't have any energy anymore. I've sat down with my nutritionist and she recommended I go back to the basic to get back on track. On a positive note I thank God that I've come this far, and I'm going to get myself together mentally so I can lose this next 50lbs. Here are a few pictures of my journey. post-150750-1410368202141_thumb.jpg post-150750-14103682179608_thumb.jpg post-150750-14103682520763_thumb.jpg post-150750-14103683150982_thumb.jpg post-150750-14103683458429_thumb.jpg post-150750-14103683774988_thumb.jpg

In the beginning it wasn't that bad because I was really motivated. I had my struggles too but after a few weeks it gets easier. The biggest motivation will be when you start noticing your clothes hanging off you. Lol Good luck to you!

You look great! Love the black dresses. I agree with your NUT about going back to basics to help you lose the last 50 lbs. I am also an emotional eater and it doesn't matter what I eat when I get emotional so I keep good foods/snacks in my house to eat during emotional times. chips are my weakness so I don't even bring them into my house. Good luck on your journey.

Happy Surgiversary! Mine was yesterday, so we can Celebrate together and eat some vegetables or something, lol. I also have been stuck at a few weights, so I appreciate how frustrating it can be. I would agree with your nurtitionist that going back to the basics is probably the best bet.

Good luck and try to enjoy today- you made it a year! :)

      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.
