Getting In Your Water....
soforreal replied to Forensikchic's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I either drink my liquids room temp. or hot warmed in microwave. I drink a lot of caffeine free hot teas. (lemon, mint, green tea, and berry flavors. It does make it easier even though I still lose track of time with my fluid intake. -

A Slow Loss Is Still A Loss ;)
soforreal replied to ITSMEMRSJ's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
Hun---slow loser. I don't think so----YOU LOOK GREAT!!! I try to think about my wt. loss in the past. There is no way that I would lose 53 lbs. in a year. So to lose 53 lbs. in just a few months is great. Congrats!!! -

Erica, I will be praying for you. Believe me I understand what you are going through. God will answer your prayers. Don't give up and don't give into your past circumstances. You will get through this, please hang in there. -
I was sleeved on Dec. 5 and have also hit a stall. I am trying to concentrate on getting more protein and liquids. It has been a challenge for me to get the 64 oz. of fluids, and congrats on the wt. loss.

Thanks for your updates. I had my surgery on 12/5. I think my weight has stalled. I am trying to increase my fluids.(This has been one of the hardes things for me.) I am also concentrating on increasing my proteins and being more active. My starting wt. was 225, up to 235, 225 before preop diet, 219 on the day of surgery and 213 to date. I will be excited when I am out of the deuce club.

I have finally been approved!!!! My pre-surgery diet visit is tomorrow. I am nervous and excited. My surgery date is 12/5/11.

I am glad that I joined this forum. I have been both nervous and exited about my decision to have the Gastric Sleeve. I have learned so much. I am now waiting on my insurance company. I very disappointed, because I didn't realize that the wait would be this long. I was told that it would take approx. 1week for the decision to be made, now they say it could take up to 30 days. OMG!!!!

Congrats!!! I will be praying for your speedy recovery!!!!
-
Wow!!! You look great. I am waiting for my insurance approval. These pictures sure give me an extra push to go forward. Thanks!!! I am hoping to have my surgery on Oct. 24, 2011.
