Two months post op



Recommended Posts

Well I made it to 2 months out and things are getting easier. Surgery was December 11. Weight loss has slowed down so I just started a modified pre-op diet again with the Protein Shakes and a small dinner. This has allowed me to lose another 3 pounds this week so far.

Weight loss has been slower than I was expecting, but I am just going to keep going and let this happen as it will.

I feel so much better- I am off pain meds for my back, just found out I am no longer pre-diabetic, and I am able to move more than I did prior to surgery.

For anyone debating whether to get this or not - it’s the end results that you need to look forward to. Everyone handles the surgery and recovery different so we cannot tell you your story. You just need to make the decision if you want to continue living as you are today or if you want to go through some discomfort to improve your life.

Overall I am so happy I did this any I am taking this day by day. Pic is first one from morning of surgery and the other was taken this week. I can’t see a big difference yet but really feel it because I can get in clothes 2 to 3 sizes smaller now. Woohoo!!

Good luck to everyone coming up on their surgery dates.

I’m 5 days shy of 2 months and I have lost exactly 23 lbs since my surgery on 12/19. I’ve also noticed I can get more food in each week that passes.

How did it feel to get into the 100’s? That’s what I am looking forward to. Keep up the good work.

Not as nearly as good as when I hit 183! I’ve never had an issue losing weight below the 200’s however for years 184 has always been the lowest I’ve been able to go no matter what I do, so when I hit 183 I did a super happy dance.

My weight goal is 120-125lbs so still a long ways to go!

Thanks :) you as well!

      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?

      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.
