OMG I saw a 1



Recommended Posts

OMG I finally broke the 200 pound mark. I am currently at 194 my lowest weight since 8th grade. I remember when I got below 300 pounds and it brought tears to my eyes....when i got the band last October never did i imagine in my wildest dreams that ONE year later I would be down a 160 pounds and be below 200 pounds. I still have a hard time believing I am buying a medium pants....down from a tight 3XL. I am very happy that I finally had the band, it has changed my life for the better and i am totally convinced that it also added years onto my life. thank you all for the support and answering those"DUMB" questions I had.........

      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.
