The Most Weight Lost So Far???



Recommended Posts

Well, for us, the biggest change is ... I don't know. There are so many I can't even say what is the biggest.

Let's see. I didnt' leave him, which is what it was coming too. I couldn't stay and watch him kill himself, powerless to stop it. It was too painful.

We actually have a love live again. Not just a sex life, but a love life.

We both fit comfortably in a queen sized bed again. When he was able to lie down without suffocating from his weight, he would take up the entire bed by himself.

He is energetic! This last week he swapped our bedroom for my craftroom. I can hardly wait to go visit so I can see it.

My husband had his band placed on the 26th of August in 2004 and he has gone from 398 to 288. Without any excercise at all. I keep hearing him say I am going to start. When I got my band on the 12th of January it really lit a fire under hime so he said that there is no way that he can let me lose more then him.

Hi TIna,

I have lost 154 pounds and it has changed my life. I used to weigh 334 pounds and I was morbidly obese. I can do lots of stuff now and I dont get tired. Its nice to shop in a normal store for clothes. I wear 14-16 on bottom and large/extra large womens shirts which are about 12-14. I had plastic surgery in August last year and had a complete Tummy Tuck and thighplasty. This year, we will hit the rides at Disneyworld , something I really couldnt do before.

      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.
