❤13 month post op❤



Recommended Posts

Not much different between 12 to 13 months except for no reason at all I started dropping weight again instead of maintaining. Currently 153lbs.

Anemia is ever present, knew I would be so I will resume IV treatments for that. Missing the summer, need a vacation from the cold. I'm always cold.

food choices are pretty constant, I'm boring and don't really need a lot of variation just rotation of my usual suspects.

No clue what clothing size I really wear but it's between a small and medium, 6-8 totally depends on cut and designer.

Dumping and food comas still occurs for me, random things like nut, meat, yogurt (lol, whatever) very mild reflux depending on food choice like yogurt, (lol whatever again) not taking anything for it because PPIs are more trouble than they are worth. If necessary I will get papaya enzyme and work with that.

BUT overall still a good choice

I love you to pieces, @GreenTealael.

Your comments, attitude, and your wry sense of humor are always inspiring. As long as you are a part of this forum, I'm not going anywhere. The same goes for you as well, @Matt Z.

Thank you EVERYONE for the ❤

(So weird to be called an inspiration or motivation. I appreciate it. I'm just a person that shys away from praise, no clue why. But thanks.)

Trying to stay accountable to myself and the forum with honest monthly updates.

      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.
