Six-Month Diet Program Pictures -- Before and Almost-The-End



Recommended Posts

One of my colleagues sent me a picture that was taken the day before I began my six-month nutrition program required by insurance company.

That was March 21.

The other picture was taken yesterday -- 22 days from my surgery date on September 28.

I cried. I wasn't ready to see that. I think the surgery is going to be so much easier because of doing all of this work on the front end.

Needless to say, I am excited about the second half of this journey, and I wanted to share the pictures because I am really proud of the efforts of the last half-a-year.

Best to all!

Well done that is awesome! I had to do the 6 month nutritional program also (I have lost 50lbs to date) so I'm kind of on a similar journey to you. I am getting my surgery on the 21st is September. Excited & nervous! Goodluck with the next part :)

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
