3 weeks post-Op ... before and after



Recommended Posts

Just stop entertaining these folks. They don't understand melaninated people can appear different shades. Some pics I look lighter and others I look darker all within the same photo session. Also you can't convince them with logic.

From what I see is your legs were never really that big but it looks like you lost a lot in your chest. One pic you have on a bra and the other you don't. As women we know how a bra can change how our body looks. I lost about the same amount of weight as you and there is a big difference in my appearance as well because of how I carry my weight.

Exactly. Thank you so much.

Honestly if you can't support her...don't look. It's not any of our jobs to police the pictures. If you can't say something nice don't say anything at all.

Now keep working on yourself and you are really becoming a thinner and still beautiful woman. As long as you are happy, none of the people here should bother you.

I smell a troll nearby. Perhaps one with a sister that uses the same bathroom?

Don't even take in all the negativity, pharm. If you say that's you, that's you. Amazing transformation after 3 weeks! Keep going, keep providing us positive people with updates, and, most importantly, don't get discouraged if every three weeks isn't this good. Proud of you!

Look at the body there is no way that is the same person. I may believe it may be months but not 3 weeks.

Lady, I really don't care what you think. The fact is the before and after are BOTH ME. And I'm very super proud of myself and your negative and ignorant doesn't upset me. It actually makes me happy!

Great job. Don't worry about the negative people.

      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.
