losing_jess 19 Posted April 16, 2016 I'm struggling to not eat all the things in these weeks pre-surgery. I don't have my date yet, but probably some time in May. My surgeon didn't require any weight loss pre-surgery and I almost wish he had. Anyone experience this? It's like I'm saying goodbye to large quantities! Help!

Seagull 140 Posted April 16, 2016 I started, lost 7 lbs in 5 months and got it all back in my 6th month. The only thing I did notice was on my 5th and 6th month I was always hungry. Maybe my body was storing fat or something. Now, I'm just waiting for my surgery.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App I was doing great until I got an approval and had a surgery date then I started eating whatever I wanted unfortunately. pizza, chocolate, you name it! I gained 5 pounds back very quickly that I had lost on my own. Luckily I do have a 14 day pre-op liquid diet so that is taking it back off and then some. It is really an emotional thing for me, it is so hard to give up food. Something I still have to work on if I want to succeed long term. So far I am 5 days into the liquid diet and not one cheat and it's been hard but getting easier.

Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App My husband is being sleeved May 2. I have had a band for 10 years and am going through the process as well hoping to get approval for a revision. My surgeon unfilled me 2 months ago and I've been eating anything and everything ever since. I haven't been able to eat without throwing up for all these years and some foods I just couldn't even attempt. So I am like a kid in a candy store. I know I am going to regret it. If I am denied, I guess I'll have to have the band refilled and start puking again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
