Operation Fine by Summertime begins!



Recommended Posts

Ten more days until my surgery in TJ! Woooooohoooo! I'm feeling a little overwhelmed and a lot excited! I have never been thin, and I am soooo tired of being considered thick ( P.C. for fat)! 2011, and so on, will be my time to shine. It's time to go from fat to fabulous. Let Operation Fine by Summertime commence! Special thanks to everyone who has ever posted on this site! You have been my comrades in this war to lose weight! I could not do it without every single one of you!

I so remember those last few days before surgery. I went through every emotion possible, but KNEW I was doing the right thing for me. At that time, I hoped to be a size 10 when I got to goal. I never thought size 4 would be my reality!!!!

Best of luck ... keep us posted on your progress.

Wow! Congrats on the excellent weight loss! I can't ever remember being a size 4! Perhaps when I was a toddler! At this point in my life, any weight loss, is good weight loss! I just can't weight to get back to being myself. It'll be nice to not be the fattest face in pictures. It was either surgery, or finding friends with bigger heads than my own. The latter is probably impossible! So, VSG surgery it is! My days of yo-yo dieting are hopefully coming to an end!

I really like the sound of Operation Fine by Summertime! Last summer I felt like I was dying any time it was over 80 degrees. I was so self-concious I wouldn't wear shorts or capris or tank tops. This year will be so much better! I'm looking forward to losing enough weight that I can wear my cute strappy sandals again!

      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.
