They had my goal to be at 130lb and told me that after the 1yr everyone usually gains 10 lbs but that had not been the case. I wanna say that for the holidays I went up 4lbs but now I'm back to same weight of 111lb. So I know u will do great! keep it up hope to see progress pics soon.

My husband doesnt want me to get the bypass because he thinks I will loose to much . I started at 202 now at 196. surgery to decide on. My Dr. recommends the bypass because of my diabetes. I need with you starting at 198 are you scared that you could loose to much? I need help explaining to him....

I am a little nervous that I will lose too much but with my health I would rather be too small than too big. I'm 51 and I have had 4 heart ❤️ attacks due to high cholesterol. My BP has been staying too high. I am also only 4/8 so from 198, I need to be at 110. I did the surgery to guarantee I could successfully lose 88 lbs. if by chance I lose too much I will try to address that situation at the time but for now, I just need to lose 60 more lbs

Hey luv u should look in to all the surgery options. Maybe another surgery would be different with the situation ur going through. My sis in law had the sleeve and she no longer has diabetes. So there's lots of options but u have to be sure..

      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.
