Let the scolding begin....

No I havent been on here....NOR have I been on my youtube account in almost a year. I really honestly thought I was going to be this awesome example and keep up with all of this stuff and really show you guys, start to finish what it was like to have the sleeve. Well In that aspect I did fail, and to the general public who was relying on me for that information I am truly sorry. It was just one thing after another, my laptop broke, my dad left for Iraq, I moved, twice, I had school and work and all that Jazz. I have to give big ups to the people with families to take care of and jobs and lives that still find the time to be dedicated to this...I am far too lazy.

REGARDLESS

It has been almost a year, My surgiversary is April 20th, so I figured I would hop on here and let everyone know what was up with me and that I am in fact not dead, contrary to popular belief. My starting weight weight was 278 and I am Very Happy to report that I am now down to 165, 160 on a good day lol.....I have been slacking lately a lot. If I work out my body responds with weight loss...and by work out I mean walk. If I dont I still lose, JUST very slowly. Now as for my diet, lemme put it this way.... I dont have one...Yes punch me in the face, what was the point of surgery? Trust me I am always aware of what I am putting in my mouth and I will say that about a month ago I went back on low carb and it really does work. I try to stick loosely to that still. But I am 25, I go out every weekend,so I drink a lot, and On top of that I have a few dates a week...So I eat out a lot...I am hot now So I gotta keep up = D I am very happy where I am but this is not my goal. My original goal was 155, which I am almost there. Of course when I noticed how the weight was falling off of me I created a new goal, which is somehwere in the 130s .....I dont have a whole lot else to say except Thanks to everyone that was here to give me the info I needed to make this decision. I am thrilled that I took the step, and If anyone has any questions for me I'll be around and I swear I'll try and answer this time = D

Thanks

-Tiff

      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.
