Plastic Surgery in 16 days!



Recommended Posts

Well, gang... I have finally hit my goal of 175 pounds! I cannot believe I've lost 200 pounds during this journey!

I am going for an arm lift, boob lift, and Tummy Tuck on June 17th! (no.... insurance isn't paying a thing...... bastards!)

I have a few "before" pix on my blog, I intend on taking a bunch a few days before surgery so that I have a good photo journey as well :)

How is everyone else from August 2009 doing?!?

U have lost 200 pounds since getting the band in 2009. That is so awsome! Have you had any problems with your band? How many cc do u have in it? How many meals do u eat a day and how much at each time? How much do u workout? Seems like a lot of qusetions but you have done so good I'm interested in learning some of secrets. I have had kidney stones since i first got my band and keep having to get my Fluid out. Just got a fill been empty for six months. I am so hoping to start losing more. I have lost 5 pounds since my small fill thursday. I got three ccs but had to go in friday and get one cc out it was way to tight.

      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.
