I made my first goal! Onederland!



Recommended Posts

Well I made it! Yesterday my scale read 199.6 today it says 198.8 so I am there the coveted Onederland. It sure feels good! Next goal is 197.4 That is my half way to goal, goal! And that means that only 1.4 pounds stand between me and my second goal! I am hoping to meet that goal in the next 5 days - we leave on vacation on Friday and would like to be there by then!

Goals.... I have to go buy a tape measurer so I can measure my inches lost. I keep reminding myself to do this but to day I have not. I really should be doing this and today I am going to got get one and have my hubby measure me up. I am only 4 weeks out from surgery so it's not to late!

I think my goals go in 10 pound increments after the midway goal. 190, 180 etc. This journey has not been easy, but it certainly has not been hard thus far. I love my sleeve and all of the awesome support that I get here from fellow pre-sleevers and post sleevers!

Thanks everyone! I celebrated by buying myself a new Coach purse today! Hubby took me out shopping and then to lunch (soup). I walked over 4 miles shopping so hopefully will be down a bit more in a few days!

Wanted to buy some new jeans but I am really in between and my body is doing weird things as my shape changes! I usually have carried my weight in my legs and rear but (ha ha butt) I am losing it there first and my tummy seems to be so flubby and blubby! Jeans fit but all that flubby is hanging over the top. Tried on some 12's that worked but cannot stand the look of the "muffin top" hanging over so I passed on them. I just need to wait for my body to lose a bit more and re-arrange itself. Anyone else have this issue?

Kim

      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.
