Hello everyone. Today I am nine month out! Hard and long journey! I succeed in loosing a total of 65 pounds. My starting weight was 215. And today I weight 150. Slow and steady. To all newbies out their: I am one of the banisters who had a really hard time while on "Bandster Hell" stage! I had a really huge doubt that I would be able to make it where I am today! I didn't really excercised much. I just have a loose skin in tummy area, which I am planning on having a tummy tuck! IT TOOK ME SIX MONTH to be in green zone! Once u get to the green zone you will know it! So many times I doubted that the green zone exists, but after six month I knew it does. 25 more pounds to goal. My goal is to be at 125. I am hoping to reach 135 by June 15. PLEASE PRAY FOR ME! Any number less than where I am today, I haven't seen In 15 years since I was 18. Now it feels like its even a harder challenge than when I first started this journey. Below is my before and now.

      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.
