You look great!!! Do you have any issues with extra skin? I'm hoping to lose 130lbs, and I'm 45, so I know I probably will.

Thank you so much! Yes I do have excess skin due to losing so many pounds in such short time. I've attached a picture of what my skin looks like. post-286653-14850334707951_thumb.jpg

What a great accomplishment. Can you share any difficulties you have had with any foods, etc? I have my first consultation in 2 weeks with the surgeon and am nervous. Was thinking of Gastric sleeve but I have reflux so bypass may be better. Thanks!

Hello Seraya!

The only complication I had was Dumping Syndrome. I literally was throwing up and pooping at the same time! It was from a little bit of pizza I had two months out. Just be very careful with what you eat. Did you get a meal plan? I have all that if you need it!

Thank you Iscarelys! I will certainly be reaching out as I move through the process. It's interesting to me. I was doing tons of research online and saw a random link to this group. I'm so glad I found it. I had done a liquid diet (Optifast) for a year (most people do it for 12 weeks) with great success though I have put back on 100 of the 150 I lost in the last 5 years. I had found a liquid diet online support group and found it so helpful. I'm glad to know I have found that Kind of support again.

      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.
