Congrats Nikki,

I've been away and when I did come around the site I was "lurking" and not signed it....I hit an ugly stall. You've been a great motivator and I am so happy for you. I have 2lbs that just won't go away to get me to onederland - but I WILL BE JOINING YOU SOON!!!! I just signed up for a Zumba class and hopefully that will push me over this ridiculous stall! Congrats girl, keep it up - you're amazing!

You look great. I'm getting sleeved in three days and I'm still feeling like I will be the one in the whole sleeve experience that it won't work for. lol

When did you notice your clothes start to bag on you? I've heared that it takes at least 30-40 lbs before others can see a difference. I've resorted to elastic waisted blacks pants for the past five years, I'm curious when others have had to go new clothes shopping.

I can't believe you lost all that weight in 7 months. Holy crap. I'm not that much above where you started and I'm so happy to see there's other 300+ people who have had so much success with the sleeve. Gives me hope.

:lol0:THAT IS RIGHT I FELL THOUGH THE HOLE OF "ONEDERLAND" I'M 197.2 AND I'M NOT OBESE ANYMORE JUST OVERWEIGHT! (no there was no cake or tea waiting for me) 127 pounds down! can you belive it! i have work my ass off guys and i just so full of emotions right now. i was so worry that the sleeve would not help me get to goal because i was so huge. i have 47 more pounds to go. i average about 10-12 pound a month still. i'm 7 months out and 2 weeks not too bad i say. when i look in the mirror i don't even see me anymore just a girl i havent seen in some years. can you belive i was 323 pounds just 7 months ago who would of thought! as far as my sleeve i don't know how much it can hold i never eat more then 3 to 4 ounces at a time and depending on what it is that pushing it if i over eat i still throw up. hardly ever hunger arises. oh i never (or haven't yet) lost my hair it actully in great shape and it grows faster go fig. all in all the battle moves forward too conquer the last 47 pounds!and at this point i have no doubts i'll get to goal!:thumbup:

I am so very proud of you Nikki! I knew you could do it. . . all those tears and frustrations during your 7 months was well worth it. . .you've come a far way sweetie and again I'm so proud of you!

      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.
