WEIGHT LOSS UPDATE: I've lost my four-year old son!!



Recommended Posts

Yesterday, I weighed myself after my son had checked his weight (it's a daily thing around here!)...

I have lost my son in weight!!! I went around to everyone who could hold him... "here's how much weight I've lost", "can you believe I had to carry around this much extra weight?", "no wonder I've gone from a 22/24 to a 16", etc...

Now, if I can only lose my 8 year-old daughter!!!!:)

Me too. I saw your title and my heart dropped. I thought you really lost your daughter. :)

Happy and proud for you though that you lost all of that weight. Gone for good.

I am on my way... new bandster as of 04/11/06 and 12lbs down from that day.

One day at a time :)

Congratulations, Cheri! But your title scared me, too. Can I edit it to put a smilie face icon on it, at least? Or change the title?

As far as weight lost goes, I've lost BOTH my 7 y.o. AND my 5 y.o. daughters!! :)

I agree with editing the title. I thought my day was going to suck today after reading that heading. Glad I'm not going to be depressed all day!

      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.
