Today I am 3 months post op. Time sure does fly!! Sometimes I feel like I am losing so slow, but then I look back over only 3 months, its going by so fast and the pounds are just melting off. I cannot wait to get to my half way point! I will have to think of something very special to do for myself when I get there.

I lost another 4 pounds this week... I seem to average that amount a week still. Sometimes I get upset that its not more, but then I tell myself at least its not 0. "Fingers crossed" I have never had a stall yet. Hopefully I am one of the few lucky ones that never does! I lost 2 pounds one week, that was my lowest week, but I was very constipated. If anyone is curious, here is my weight loss in pounds per week since surgery.

Starting weight: 369

Surgery weight: 356

Today's weight: 282 :):)

Week 1: 17

Week 2: 6

Week 3: 7

Week 4: 4

Week 5: 7

Week 6: 6

Week 7: 2

Week 8: 5

Week 9: 4

Week 10: 5

Week 11: 3

Week 12: 4

Week 13: 4

Just thought it was kind of cool looking at it that way.

I have been doing pretty well. Feeling great. I have been walking some, but need to workout more. My hair started falling out last week and its getting so thin. But thats okay!

Here is a slideshow of my weight loss so far.

Actually the last few weeks I have been able to eat LESS!! But I have been sick (congestion/cough) so maybe that's why?

Wow you look great!!! Love the one where your hair was down. Great pic.

My hair is naturally curly/frizzy, LOL. I straightened it one day. I am not going to do that for a while because its getting so thin, so I don't want to do anything to it right now! But I do like it straight!

Hehe, I got it at Old Navy.com on clearance, and when I ordered it, it was soooo small. I ordered a 3X but it was small. I wore it today because I have a older pic of me wearing it, but then I couldn't find the pic to compare, LOL. It says "NICE" under the naughty, but you can't see it in the pic, hehe.

      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.
