muffin.x 37 Posted August 10, 2021 I can’t wait till I have the surgery. So ready to start my new life. Had a horrible experience at work today. Had to put on a lab coat and overalls and they didn’t fit properly. Could barely move in them. Felt so embarrassed. Had the same thing a few weeks ago when trying the new uniform. They didn’t have my size so I had to try men’s sizes. So embarrassing and it looked horrible. I am so ready to never feel this way again. I just finished week one of the pre-op diet my surgeon gave me. Just one more week. By this time next week I’ll be done. Can’t wait. 🤞🏻 1 1 Tony B - NJ and phenomenally_me reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tony B - NJ 643 Posted August 11, 2021 Surgery on 8/31. Getting a jump start on the diet so I can minimize any complications and make sure I get a good surgery. Down 9 pounds in 5 days. Worried I may lose too much to keep my insurance approval. Have 3 weeks to go. The diet is not nearly as bad as I thought it would be. I am not feeling really hungry at all but I am only on it 5 days so far. 1 ColieCallwell reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am not feeling really hungry at all but I am only on it 5 days so far. I got my surgery on August 4th. My doctor was very happy I lost 14 pounds in the prior 2 weeks. Once you have your insurance approval, your all set..don’t worry…they want us to lose the weight at the end..it helps with shrinking the liver for surgery and helps us with our new lifestyle. It helped me so much and now I’m 21 pounds down since July 19th. Keep up the good work!! 1 Tony B - NJ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
