July 12th will be here before you know it. then the surgery date...seems like it all takes forever then BAM it's over and your losing weight.

Read all you can...the more you inform yourself the more you'll be prepared for what is ahead.

My surgery (RNY) was may 24th, I was 224 highest weight at 5' 5"....at surgery, I was 207 and this morning I was at 180lbs!

Are you guys taking a bariatric Vitamin? Those have B12 in them. Since my surgeon is at a center of excellence they only let us take the bariatric Vitamin. You can find the B12 in a Gummy form I believe.

I take Superior Source B-12/B 6 & Folic Acid... it's a very teeny tiny dissolvable pill you put under your tongue.

So I weighed myself today, and I have lost 38 lbs from my highest weight in 7 weeks 5 days. I did a face comparison, and I'm really starting to see a difference. I was 283.8 at my HW and 245.8 today.

one step at a time, one sip at a time, one pound at a time.

I'm sorry to hear you're still getting sick. You have lost a lot of weight but like you said, it's hard to enjoy it if you're always feeling bad. I hope they get it figured out for you.

      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.
