One month down ~ photos



Recommended Posts

I took my one month photos today. Hard to believe it's been just over 4 weeks already. I'm feeling good and seem to be having more energy. I was working on purging my closet before I finish unpacking (we moved just before my surgery). I managed to get the living room/kitchen pretty much done before surgery, then I was recovering and couldn't lift or move much, then Christmas so I'm finally getting to my bedroom.

How are all the other first weekers doing?

I can't wait to see the changes another month will bring....

Congratulations Teresa. I took photos on the morning of surgery and plan to take photos each month on the anniversary of my surgery. My doctor's office really encouraged us to take pre-surgical photos, for our own reference. My sister asked me to take the monthly photos wearing the same outfit I wore in my initial pictures.

Best wishes to you in your weight loss journey.

I'll have my wife take some pictures tonight since today is my 1 month anniversary date of surgery. Everyone says they can see the difference in my face so you all get to be the judge tonight!

BTW Doxie congrats! It's great to see those changes already!

Looking good!

I plan to do pics, measurements and a silouhett each monthly anniversary.

The silouhett is pretty funny. I layed down on a large piece of paper and my daughter did my outline (face down and on my side) I was amazed at how large my belly was...

      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.
