Oh Sweet Onderland!!!!



Recommended Posts

I've finally hit onderland, just so happy my starting weight was 263 I had my surgery 4/25/12. I'm down 67 lbs. today I am 196. I haven't quite decide if I want to stop at 150 or go to 144, the goal weight my dr set. I guess I just have to wait and see what I look like. Just so excited I can't wait! I've been heavy for the majority of my life and it feels soon good to be shedding this fat! I just hope and pray that once its gone its gone!

Congratulations! That has to be a great feeling! I still have quite a ways to go but am looking forward to what the future holds! I was 320 pre-surgery and am now 290. At this point I can't imagine what under 200 looks and feels like!! Once again, great job and you are really an inspiration to people like me!

      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.
