Amazing hon! You look fantastic! How far out are you if you don't mind me asking. I'm almost a year out from gastric sleeve and i feel like we are at a similar place. Are you at goal or still losing?

You look good. 🙂 Cool phone case.

I'm going on 5 months post op and went from a size 22 to a size 4 or 6.

Congratulations on the weight loss.

That's amazing progress for such a short amount of time. What was you guys' regimen if you don't mind me asking. I can't seem to stay on track lately and i want to keep losing. Its coming off so slow now. So frustrating.

Honestly I pretty much eat whatever. I try to stick to healthy stuff but no ones perfect. I need to get back in the gym more often. I'm just so tired after work it's hard to want to go. It also doesn't help that I work with a lot of really friendly Indian ladies that always have super yummy food to share.

that makes me feel so much better. I eat pretty much whatever too but i try to stay within the rules. Protein first and all that. Omg i hate turning away food. Always have. Its really hard now since i just don't have the room. Its been almost a year for me and i still haven't worked out lol. I just hate gyms.

That is so inspiring. I am a 24 right now and 2 weeks post op. Any favorite foods or tips?

Favorite foods would be fresh fruit and veggies. They go down really easily and they don't sit heavily on my pouch. Low fat turkey chilli Is another favorite of mine. Add a little shredded cheese and bam super yummy and full of Protein. Never again will I eat pudding or Soup unless I absolutely have to.
Tips? Do not get discouraged. After I had my surgery I had instant buyers remorse. I missed food. I actually had a full blown crying break down in a rite aide because they didn't make sugar free ice cream... now though I cannot imagine my life and diet any differently. Yes I miss cheeseburgers and pizza, but I do not miss being 306 pounds.
Ice chips will be your bff for a while. It helped satisfy my desire to chew and have some crunch in my mouth and helped me stay hydrated.
Walk, walk, walk. Always walk. It helps you digest, helps relieve gas pain, and you'll lose so much faster.

      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.
