Warning little Summer Buddies Frustr8 is ready to Wax Poetic!


July is nearly over***

Hello again everyone!

So here is an update. Just finished my pre-testing. 1 WEEK TO GO!!!

I am down to 146 kg which is ~322 lbs. From ~350 lbs the week before, day 1 of the pre-bariatric diet.

Thank you for the support and my griping about the diet and concerns. I do not know if I hit ketosis... I did sneak an american cheese slice and rotisserie chicken yesterday...but otherwise 4 shakes and cabbage Soup x2 with some ice and sugar free Jello.

I guess because I used to drink soda and juices and eat a ton of carbs, this is working.

I am still having some bumps with my medications that different doctors do not want to advocate for to get them to write the prescription (lovanox), but that is just a bump... and I may freak out by Wednesday if not resolved.

Surgery so far still on for the 6th...

That’s awesome! 28lbs in a week! I haven’t lost half of that. I think I’ve lost 11-12lbs. 4 days till surgery

How are you feeling and doing?

[LauriW 19]

I am a newbie as well. Surgery date is August 2nd! One more day of liquid diet (14 days total) and the highly anticipated bowel prep! Lol

I look forward to reading how y'all are doing and posting some stats on my end.
