Excuse me...but isn't this a support board. You have every right to talk about how you have succeeded. SCREW THEM if they have a problem with it.

Yeah! What she said. Mary you took the words write out of my typing hands. It is hard to lose 10lbs and 50lbs is great.So many of us have been in the background because of our weight. To lose that amount and be proud and say I did it is GREAT!! Diane you ARE NOT boasting. In the words of my 89 year old granddaddy "it is a po' frog that don't praise his own pond". Can I get an AMEN!!!

:peace:

Woohoo!! Celebrate success! Unless youre running around singing "Neener, neener, neener.. I've lost more weight than yo-ou" then should feel free to sing out about your victory! It's a hell of a battle and everyone who experiences even the slightest victory should be excited and eager to share with all of us so we can gain (or regain) hope for ourselves!

50 pounds is definately something to be proud about and anyone that would complain about you posting it should just skip the thread then. I mean....Heck I LOVE seeing things like this because it WILL help me. It pushes me along to do what I have to do. I actually copied your ideas and habits you have listed and saved them in a file I have here at home on my computer. I want to look back on the successful people when I'm feeling I'm not doing well. I want to be able to peek at their words and goals and dreams and how they did it to see if there is anything there I can use to help myself get to my own goals. I suppose if someone is down and out because they aren't losing, heck we all would be after going through all this, but, if you're not in the mood to hear about someone elses success then just move on to the next thread that tickles your fancy. I just don't get why people get so upset.

Don't change anything, don't feel bad for posting or even worry about what you've said here. You didn't hurt anyone by posting this, heck to me, you've helped more people move towards their goal.

YOU GO GIRL!!!!! Congratulations!

      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.
