I will be 4 months out in 8 days and last night I hit the 50 pound mark! I am SO happy!!!!:thumbup: I never thought I would make it here! I am SO thankful to my surgeon for giving me this great tool. I had doubts it would work, since so many diets failed in the past. I am looking forward to meeting my ultimate goal of 135 pounds! I know I can do it now!

Thanks for letting me share!

Congrats on the 50 lb mark!:thumbup: That is a major accomplishment and I know that you must feel great. I also hit the big 50 this past week and have been dancing around ever since so I know how excited you are. We are very close in surgery date and starting weight so we must be on the same path. Keep up the great work! I also hope to get to somewhere around 135 - 145.

      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.
