Right my dietician gave me that i asked her about working out after surgery and she said i could just dont over do it

If you haven't already, I strongly recommend (along with pre-op pictures) taking your measurements before surgery. I started taking my measurements once a month in January, and as of today I'm down 17 inches overall. I can't wait to see what June 1st looks like!

I was thinking about geting the zozo suit for my measurements but im sure My granny can help me . Someone said if i have a stall dont worry about it my body is working on my inches instead of weight .

Exactly. We have to look for those non-scale victories when the stalls hit.

I just saw that the xoxo suit isn’t sending out and more suits or selling clothes in most parts of the world anymore.

Right? I've been waiting for so long for this and now it's getting super real.

Pre-op diet phase 2 is working well. Down 5lb in 2 days. Cooking for my family is challenging but not as bad as I thought it would be.

One big thing that's messing with my head is the fact that IT'S BEEN SNOWING ALL WEEK!! When I got my surgery date back in March, I had envisioned spring. Waking up to fresh snow every day is messing with my plan to be outside walking every day. The weather is supposed to get back to seasonal on Monday, but this is absurd even for Alberta.

Anywho... May the 4th be with you all!

Whataburgers are fat-laden, have a calorie count through the ozone, I have had in the past had some, they are seductive in their taste so I can understand why Dabeyhive couldn't turn her steering wheel in the opposite direction!🚘

Ok, liquid diet has been kicking my behind today. I confess to licking the spoon after dishing up mashed potatoes tonight for the rest of the fam. And I may or may not have inhaled a small crumble of meatloaf. *hangs head*

Lol With this preop diet i never knew how much i was going to miss food until NOW smh

Seriously! Lol

I never thought i'd miss the routine of just chewing.

I find myself chewing my applesauce or surgar free pudding or even my well-mixed Protein Shake out of sheer habit! lol

Hi everyone , today the day I’m on my way to the hospital and I’m super nervous !!!

[Frustr8 7,886]

Don't be nervous Ms Dabneyhive, Every Little Thing gonna be Okay!🙏Praying it will be just that way!
