I had RNY on March 8, 2017. This was the best day of my life. The photos are of me at my highest weight of 330 and my current weight of 231. Every day has been a struggle but I'm doing it. I have my eye on the prize. Onederland here I come. I haven't been there since the 90's.IMG_20170613_110147.jpg IMG_20170613_110304.jpg

We have similar stats. I could use a buddy. How are you managing now? I agree every day is a struggle. Would like to hear more about it if you're willing to share.

Wow!!! Our stats are similar. I don't mind sharing at all. I would love to be your buddy. Send me a message if you have any questions. As I said in my post it is a struggle. I still struggle with cravings. I just don't give in. I think about why I had the surgery and I get through it. When the cravings a arise I try meditation or reading. I just think that I have to be successful at this. Prior to surgery I was taking 2 shots and 4 pills a day for diabetes. Also 2 pills to control my blood pressure. I don't want to go back there. That is motivation enough. I also attend a support group.

I'm also having trouble getting in all of my nutrients. I try to log everything I eat. I focus on Protein and make sure I take all of my Vitamins. I hope I answered your questions. If you have any questions please feel free to ask.

      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.
