Three Months Post-Op



Recommended Posts

And I'm down 65 lbs. I'm finally below 300 lbs, and I couldn't be happier. I haven't been this weight in ten years. Hell, I haven't even been close to it since 2012. I know I'm going to continue the weight loss too.

My highest weight was 427 lbs. April 2018. My weight on surgery day was 360.8. I weighed myself yesterday morning and was 295.2.

And do you have a firm goal to head to? My highest was 365+. my Surgery weight was 319, and 10 months later I have. broken the 200 pound barrier and am 198- 199. That's a place I never could be without WLS.

Ideally, I'd like to reach 175 myself. I'm 5'10"- 5'11"-ish. Realistically, I'd be happy with under 215.

Oops. I’m hoping you made a typo and you weighted 295.2 yesterday morning!

It's really weird because I had been 298.2 on Friday morning, but then I was 295.8 on Saturday, and 295.2 yesterday, and now 296.2. Jagged little weight graph.

Your weight lost total is stellar. Nice work Ellf! Do you have go to meals most days?

I'm trying to find my groove still and I've hit a rut. Granted I haven't weighed myself in 3 weeks or so, but I know that I'm stalling a bit due to how things fit. I purposely haven't been weighing myself so I won't become obsessive about it.

Also, what's your workout regiment like?

Nice Job!

ps. almost forgot we have the same surgery date, so I'm curious because of that and where we are at the same time.

My only two go-to meals are three light mini Babybel cheeses for Breakfast (50 cal each, 6 g Protein each), and Wendy's chili (which I can now eat a full small chili... for 21 grams of protein and 210 cal).

The rest I kind of play by ear. My workout consists mostly of me just walking around the office during the daytime and getting lots to drink. I should probably swim more, and am planning on getting some swimming in this week.

Thanks for the response, I love those Babybel cheeses. Before my surgery I used to buy the 12 pack and eat them all in one sitting. Those were my kryptonite for sure.

Mine is Cheetos White Cheddar Puffs, Chester Cheetos and Frito- Lay did a very very bad thing inventing those. Had a bag rolled up, secured with a big, think they are called File Bands, rubber band hidden next to my chair until Tomkitten found them , bawled me out, said maybe he would have to eat them himself to save ME. Yeah, eat a couple bags, you'll be 40 or above BMI and you'll get frog 🐸marched to my Bariatric Clinic in Columbus. Besides he was sniff sniff💦 coming between me and my Kryptonite!

      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.
