Congrats everyone. Keep it up. I'm a 12/2016 sleever. Was a 22 & 2x/3x. I can wear a 16 now. But I too am still working on the mental adjustment. Everyone comments on how my face looks so different but I don't see it in my body. I'm glad at the progress but my mind hasn't caught up with the body and the number (pounds lost) . Weird. Lol. Will give it time.

I started at a 24/26 and I am currently at a 14/16 I'm very happy that I see the change in clothes size but I have a problem and still see a 300 lbs girl when I look in the mirror I have not adjusted to the way I look yet.SMH

What type of diet/food plan did you use after surgery to help with weight loss?

I was size 24 at 256 pounds. Had bypass two years ago 4/2/14.

Now I am size 4 at 138 pounds. Best money I ever spent on myself!

I'm almost 1 year out of surgery and I went from a 26 to a small (top) and 8 (pants and dresses).

I'm still hoping to lose about 20 lbs and go down to a 4 size for pants and dresses.

The picture attached was taken this past February at 173 lbs and 9 months out of surgery. I went back to Texas for a vacation and posed in the exact same spot I posed for a picture at my highest weight (345 lbs) years ago.

      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.
