Not to much longer for you. I remember how excited and nervous I was the last two weeks before my surgery. Hopefully time passes quickly for you and you will take your seat on the losers bench☺️

I had my surgery on May 15th. Monday will be 8 weeks and I have lost 23lbs. I weighed 233 in January and I lost 25 lbs pre-op down to 208. I am losing a little slow, but with my lower BMI it is normal. I am losing inches and I feel great!

I am excited for you!

July 31 is my Day and I can't wait I just want to be able to cross my legs yall

It'll be here before you know it! I can cross my legs for the most part but prefer not too. I am always reminded of blood circulation being cut off and spider veins for some reason. Lol. I do cross them from time to time though. Happy you're at the end, you'll be crossing soon. You having the sleeve?

July 31 is my surgery day, too. I've been on a practice diet since April 14, and have been on a very low calorie diet since June 19. This diet is mostly Protein Shakes and one lean & green meal. Some days are tougher than others, but it has been fun to feel the weight start to come off.

I'm nervous, though.

Prayers to you all. The beginning can be difficult with some days of uncertainty, but it's worth it. Remember everyone's recovery and progress is different. Monitor what you eat, how much Fluid you intake, and how much you workout. Make adjustments as needed. Remember extreme workouts is not always good. I read that alot of people workout 6 days a week, eat less than 1000 calories a day, etc. Which theres noting wrong with that, its just may not be the right course for everyone. Ive changed my routine and diet a few times since my surgery and thank GOD ive continue to be successful. When I stalled I adjust, when I have some type of difficulties I analyze whats going on and adjust. At 7 weeks I workout maybe 3 times a week for an hr, and I try to consume less than 50g of carbs and at least 100g of Protein. I think the most important things to remember is High Protein and fluids, low carbs, walk, sip slowly, and make adjustments as needed.

      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.
