I'm two weeks today post-op and down 26 lbs!  This is a combination of my presurgery diet and post-op diet.  I can feel a difference in my body and have given away a few tops that are just too big!  Whoo-Hoo!  It will be a while before I give pants away, I'd imagine.  Fighting "head hunger" has been the hardest battle.  Who knew?  I mean I kept reading posts about it, but until you are in the heat of battle, you don't really know how hard it can be.  Looking forward to a bright and healthy future!

278.5 / 252.5 / 160

I am a week away from surgery and 14.5 lbs lighter from the liquid diet.  My surgeon seems to be a lot stricter than what I've seen others posting.  I had to have 4 weeks liquid diet pre-op and will have 3 weeks post-op.  No pureed foods until weeks 4 and 5.   I know it will be fine.  I hope I am a fast loser!!!  I don't want to be a year out and only have lost 50 lbs. or something.  Ideallly, I would like to be within 20 - 30 lbs of goal by 1 year.  I hope that isn't too unrealistic!  November 20th, here I come!!!!

Just getting this site set up for myself!  I love all the backgroud stuff everyone has and will have to try and do it, too!  My surgery date is 11/20/06 and I am very excited!!!!!!  I have been on a pre-op Opti-fast diet this week and will continue until my surgery date and then 2 weeks after.  So far I am down 7 lbs in in week.  WONDERFUL!  I am doing strength training a couple of times a week and because I am a dog owner, I am walking regularly.  I am so excited to see what my body looks like slim.  It's been twenty years since I've seen it looking good!  What an adventure this year will be for me.
