Half way point. 151lbs down in 133 days.

[fd319 86]

My highest weight was 445 in January 2016, my surgery date was 09/20/16 and my weight was 407 day of surgery. As of today, 01/31/17, 133 days since surgery I have lost 151 lbs.

I never thought "what I had lost" would surpass "what I needed to loose" so quickly. Only 149 lbs to goal. It seems so much more possible now.

I take it one day at a time, one meal, one choice. I don't think about what I need to do tomorrow or that I need to loose "x" amount of weight by "y" date. I'm just thankful I'm alive and I'm moving forward.

I am 390 right now and getting sleeved March 7th. I'm scared that my expectations of losing a lot of weight in a short time frae is unrealistic. This gives me hope. I want to be off my insulin and oral meds ASAP. That's amazing. What have you done to lose that amount in 4 months? Any tips would be awesome

3 weeks after surgery and I'm doing ok

Lost 17kgs already and starting to feel like I've done the right thing. Day 1 was great and I was saying how good is this. Day 2 and was omg what have I done the pain and reflux was unbearable but soon Day 3 arrived and everything has settled. Going to see the dietician on Monday followed by the surgeon. I'm feeling a little week at times but no real discomfort in the stomach area. But I'm liking the ice and cool Water, some of those super doopers ice pop things (sorry for terrible discretion) I'm not hungry and my surgeon has told me not to worry if I'm not up to eating there will b plenty of time to catch up in eating. So for me it's all about being thirsty and dry, so I'm enjoying cold liquids with my Vitamin tablets and plenty of fluids - yes it's all about sip sip sip but a few times I've been so thirsty I have forgotten to sip and did get Done discomfort with that blockage feeling.

I'm stoked at the result so far. Am starting to make one or two meals from the book given to me after surgery and will try to fluidly start eating a little pured recipes.

Hope your all enjoying your new lives and soon the world will be your oyster.
