Watching clips from My 600 pound Life on YouTube and rooting for them all...and wanting to strangle a couple. It's weirdly motivational.

We've placed a few of the cast members on My 600-pound life.

I'm referring to Facebook, Insta and YouTube influencers.

Thanks!

Love Kimberly H and Chemistry Queen!

I'd like to add Clusie and Short Sleeved T -- very informative, relatable and entertaining! I love watching these videos and seeing their transformation over time. It's so inspirational.

@morganlosing on instagram. She’s amazing. Real. She struggles and has bad days where she isn’t perfectly on plan, and she admits it, which makes everything relatable.

I follow a lot of WLS people but I’ve been following this lady for a while, even before her sleeve with Dr. Illan. She’s upbeat, enthusiastic, and a kind soul. She helped me greatly in my decision to go with Dr. Illan.

      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.
