Hopefully My Last Fill....



Recommended Posts

A year and 5 month ago I started this journey of loosing weight. I lost 88 pounds in 9 months and got really sick nothing to do with the band..... because of the lost of this weight the fat that was covering my organs actually protecting them when off and the complications of a really bad endometriosis started..... after 5 surgeries the worst and last one 6 month ago now I feel great. I am ready to regain control of my life and continue my so wanted journey I'm 33 pounds away to get to my goal..... I only gain 8 pounds after all this.... this past week i lost 5 ..... Today I'm getting a fill that I hope will be the one that take me to my goal or at least close to it.... I hope to get lots of comfort and support........ here are some pictures from the before and after so far.

      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.
