I had my gastric bypass on 02/28/17. I feel pretty good all things considered. I'm returning to work tomorrow, 03/13/17. I have already lost 20 additional pounds since my surgery and I feel great. Sure, tracking my food is an added job, and the foods I can eat are so limited, but hey....who cares! I feel great!!!

It all gets better from here, right?! You ladies keep strong and keep posting! Make plans for what things in life you will do now that you CAN do them. Keep a journal of your WLS victories. Remember this is a marathon and not a sprint. Soon (if not already) people will take notice of your weight loss and will tell you how good you look. That will fuel the rest of your weight loss journey:D

Congratulations on the beginning of a new healthier better life... I had RYN on 2/13/17.. still feels unreal but I feel so much better.. the beginning was a struggle because of gas pains and then I had inflammation in my ribs. [emoji44] worst pain ever... but just like giving birth don't regret nothing.. keep us posted ok..

      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.
