Recommended Posts

I am so happy to be 199.5, I started to cry and call in to work today. I have been struggling back and forth 200-203 pounds. It is time for me to put the petal to the metal. I have got to write down my goals, my rules and stay determined and focued. It has been a very hard journey for me, it was not as easy as I thought.:heh: Remember dont let anyone tell you that you took the easy way out because you didnt, I didnt, Having the band is hard work.

It must be something about the scales not wanting to go under 200 because I have spoken to so many people who lose some weight but once they get close to 200 it just wavers for a month or 2 teasing them week after week. It did the same for me for weeks.

Damn scales...

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

Oh my goodness, it is the best feeling in the world! I am doing the happy dance for you! I just noticed that we both seem to have averaged about 6 lbs per month...I personally dont mind slower as long as it comes off! In fact I am PROUD of that 1.5 lb per week average....to me it is perfect! Just think where you will be at the one year mark!!!

      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.
