First “mini” goal reached!!!!



Recommended Posts

Today was the day!!!! When I stepped on the scale this morning, for my "Weekly Wednesday Weigh-in" I had finally reached my first goal!!!

I OFFICIALLY WEIGH LESS THAN MY DRIVER’S LICENSE SAYS I DO!!!

Can’t really believe that I lied by about 40lbs, but it doesn’t matter anymore because now it is wrong in the other direction. I was pretty confident that I was going to meet my goal of 250, but much to my surprise – I murdered it!!! My official weight this morning was 246.6 that means that I am down 43.4lbs since my surgery on January 12th (just 10 weeks ago). I am elated!

On a side note last Friday was the day that I really noticed that my boobs had shrunk. It was just like junior high all over again . . . I woke up one morning and they were there . . . then I went to sleep 16 years later and they were gone again. I am not unhappy about this – they were definitely well above average, I just hope that when this is all said and done I am left with something.

Well, I am having a great day today!!!! I wish you all the same!

      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.
