I'm lucky to have my mom here to take care of my 5yr old little boy. He is such a ball energy and it takes me forever at this point just to stand up lol I wouldn't stand a chance!
I'm not sure what else to say .... I guess I'm hoping to find other moms who have had this done too.
Monday before the surgery I weighed 396lbs. I go back on the 18th for my first post op check. I can't wait to make sure things are doing what they are supose to be doing. And of course the first weigh in!
CongratsTara, I'm Kathy and I had my surgery on May 14th, ohhh it's exactly 7 months ago today...yayyyyy. I have lost 127 pounds since my surgery. My advice to you is to remember to drink slowly. Make sure you get your protein in. Your going to find some things taste differently now, something you may have loved before you may not be able to handle now, but your a while from that. I know it's hard espeically in the very beginning to drink as much as they want you to do. Just try, but always make sure you drink those protein shakes. If you have any questions or just need to talk please feel free to message me.
I don't know what kind you have now, but this is what I drink and I think it's pretty good and not that expensive. You can get it at Walmart for a little less than $15.00. My favorites are chocolate and strawberry, and what I do is mix a half of scoop of each, for a strawberry chocolate shake.
Today I mixed some Crystal Lite with it and I didn't gag so that was an improvement!
