I HAVE ARRIVED!!!!!! (Onederland!)



Recommended Posts

So at 6:30 this morning onderland welcomed me with open arms. I topped off at 199.2. I actually saw a number that starts with a 1 and damn it looked good! I think the last time I was under 200 I was 16, so 21 year in the twos and occasionally threes...I hope to never leave here again!

I know the feel. I went to the dr for a fill today and about wanted (kind of did alittle) to a dance of being under 200. I have not been under 200 in about 18 years. What a great feeling.

Congrats!!!!!!:)

Thank you all so very much. I am THRILLED beyond words. I never doubted the band was the right move for me, it's just happened a bit quicker than I expected (Not complaining of course). I have spent my entire life not telling people how much I weigh and today told anyone who would listen I weighed 199...my entire office knows. I guess in a way I should brag about 199 but in the grand scheme, well, you guys understand!!! Thirty-nine to go!

      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.
