ONEDERLAND! - Never thought I'd see the day!



Recommended Posts

This is the BEST decision of my life.

This morning, I woke up, weighed myself as always and I FINALLY have a 1 in front of my weight rather than a 2!

I was banded about 4.5 months ago (7/29/2010) and have lost 75 pounds now.

I can no longer wear (or no longer have to wear) the W clothes :D and can actually buy clothes in the normal sections of the stores.

YAY ME!!!

Yay congrats! It's definitely hard to imagine when we're starting this process that we'll actually be able to reach onederland.

I hope to get there soon...just 30 more lbs and I'll be joining you!!!

You're an inspiration...keep going!

CONGRATS TO YOU! A great feeling too, is to just throw away the "Woman Within" catalogs, because everything in them is too big for you! Good post. Karen(kll724)

      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.
