If you stick to the plan for food and don't over stretch your new tummy, this time should be better. I've done the same yo-yo trip up and down in a 70lb range. I don't see how I could possibly gain it all back if I'm eating the right portions and having mostly low carbs. You can do it. And you look awesome [emoji6]

Wow, the idea of losing 50lbs. in 3 months is still unfathomable to me as a recent post-op. I would be thrilled to death with 30. You look fantastic. What strikes me the most is that even though the focus is not on your face in the pic, you look far younger to me.

Well at 45+ at 11 weeks I am just a skoot behind you. You look GOOD, with a sore almost constant pouch pain, stricture, 5 ulcers and a prolonged liquid diet and 72, I just look 😩 weary. Tomkitten my son says he can see a weight loss, says he is proud of ME, even my PCP says,he is also. I would be a little grateful except I am like the lady: Someone said to her My you are looking so good today! Her answer What? Don't I always? See I used to think I was a wonderful person then too, only YOU defined me by MY weight and apparance(to you). I HAVE ALWAYS BE A WONDERFUL PERSON, LOVING AND LOVEABLE! Too bad YOU were so shallow YOU didn't see👀 it for yourself.
But I have now seen myself naked, I have lost my double-chins, my neck now looks like a 🐢 turtle emerging from my shell/shoulders, it is getting cold🍁🍂❄in Ohio, so I am not getting sunlight/Vitamin D, so my skin tone is off, a pale 😩- looking sallow off-shade, my once- plump lower abdomen looks like a deflated balloon, you know when you let out air it's kinda blobby? And my legs look constantly with bruising where I don't remember bumping things. My a** is flattening, Good, you think? Not when It hurts so bad to sit, especially on hard and wood chairs. First of month, I WILL be buying a Memory Foam sitting pillow, might even put it in its own little red wagon!
And the worst part I think this AM? The abiding pouch pain, the 5 stomal/ jejunem ulcers, the prolonged liquid diet, the lack of spontaneous 💩 and the STRICTURE that still abides.
But Dr Noria, my surgeon's partner, my designated endoscopist, swears on a stack of Merck Manuela and Grey's Anatomies I SHALL BE HEALED! She has been in THIS BUSINESS longer than I have been strictured, SO MAY IT BE SO!😪💦😛🙏

      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.
