BrownLady1979, if that is your Birth Year you are the same age as my son, after watching me and my weight loss since my surgery 8 months ago tomorrow, he realizes I am suddenly 30 pounds lighter than him. Oh he wears his weight well at this point, but he plans to speak with our PCP, if he recommends it too, the next step will to also meet with Dr Needleman,my surgeon. He does not like the fact I am in 1X and 2X and wearing his cast-offs, he is still a 3X and a 42-44 waist. He still looks solid instead of really obese but he says" I don't want to wait until I am YOUR AGE! Speedy Gonzales,his pet name for our PCP, has been printing on every summary " Morbid Obesity" because his BMI is 37, FYI mine just dropped to 34, this means I AM NO LONGER MORBID, JUST now" Obese" and I am working toward merely OVERWEIGHT!

Hey guys! Surgery went well and I'm going home today yayyyyy! I have no pain only some gas discomfort and today it's much better. I was up and walking an hour after surgery and everyone is amazed how quickly I am recovering. Others around me wasnt so lucky. They were crying for pain and nausea. Thank God I didn't experience that 🙌🏾🙌🏾. Thanks everyone for the support and love. I feel great and I'm ready to start my new journey 🤗

      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.
