21 weeks post op......pic!



Recommended Posts

My daughter was just going thru her phone and came across some photos that were taken on the day of my surgery on October 27, 2014. So I put it together with a pic that was taken last week on vacation.

Whoa!! You really see the hard work when you see a side by side comparison in photos. LOL

I'm working hard to hit the 100lb loss mark by my 6 month surgiversary!! Wish me luck!!

P.S. I finally got a pic to post the correct way, not sure what I did different though. LOL HAHAHA

You should be so proud of what you've accomplished! You're beautiful! Honestly, if there had been no caption with these pictures I would have assumed it was a pic of a mother in your before, and her daughter in the after. It's amazing how weight loss not only makes you feel better, but also magically makes you look younger as well.

Thanks The Candidate....one of my concerns about losing weight was when the fat was gone from my face maybe all my wrinkles that the fat was pushing out would show. LOL So far I am glad they are not!! I am not sure if I really look younger but I know I feel younger!! :)

      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.
