Woo Hoo Milestone 2 And 3 Done 50 Lbs Gone !!



Recommended Posts

Hi !!!

My pre op diet 3/23/12 banded 4/6/12 starting weight 339 at start of pre op diet.I posted my first milestone which was getting under 300 lbs which I did June 12.my next 2 milestones were close together

1. Get to pre / post pregnancy* weight of 291

2. Lose 50 lbs and be at 289

Well yesterday I was 289 YES!!!

I have a loooong way to go but I'm moving along.Reading the stories and advice on here has been crucial to me moving forward. I hope my milestone check in also helps some one :-)

my next milestone is a bit far off.It is to get to my nursing school weight of 260.but I think I will try to check in every 10 lbs or so.

* I weighed 291 June 2008 just befor getting pregnant with my son.6 weeks after giving Burt I was back at 291.So I gained 48 lbs in 3 yrs.:-( BUT it's coming off now WOO HOO !! *

Congrats!!! I remember losing my first 30 lbs and my walking was faster and sexier.

I have 47 more lbs to my goal. If I'm happy with just 37 lbs, I'll leave it @ that. My Dr. wants me to get down to 170, and its been over 25 yrs since I've been that weight. I started @ 285 and never thought I would be to where I am today. Just take it one day/pound @ a time. You'll get there. I am :D

Way to go!! Keep up the good work!! I'm day 3 of my pre-op diet, surgery on August 23rd. First two days no worries, not too hungry today OMG! I did exercise this morning so my body just may need a little more energy. I'll have to do a 2 pm shake today. I can't wait until next Thursday!

I know exactly how you feel. It gets better.if u exercised u may want to get in a few more calories.adding the shake is right .I couldn't cope .after 3 days if pre op I called the Doc and asked if I can do something else.they said I can have 2-3 oz of Protein once a day if was really hungry.I had one small piece of fish or chicken at dinner every day for the duration of the pre op phase.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
