I've lost 102 pounds in a year, and gone from a size 20 to a size 8. I feel great, and this site has given me lots of support and inspiration--although I've not posted until just today (I know--strange).

I'm just checking in to say that this thread is full of big losers! And I'm so happy for each of you! My goal is to join y'all by the end of September. That would put me over 100 pounds lost in 9 months. I can live with that!

Hello. I am new to this board. I have lost 100 pounds since my surgery November 2003. I would like to lose another 50 lbs before I contemplate cosmetic surgery for the sagging skin. While I am thrilled that I have lost this much, I feel that the journey has been a very slow process for me. I seem to hover over 180 lbs and can seem to do anything about it. Has anyone or is anyone experiencing this and has made a break through?

Don't get me wrong. I am thrilled that I have lost weight and more thrilled that I no longer have to take meds for Type 2 Diabetes and Acid Reflux and that I have more energy. Just need help over this hump? Any help is greatly appreciated.

      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.
