My Big Day 3/15/2011 4 Posted May 2, 2011 That's an incredible amount! You must post a ticker for everyone to see your journey. I am 7 weeks out tomorrow and have lost 43 lbs, however that includes my pre-op weight loss. I am completely happy with that amount but am curious as to how you are losing so much so fast and I am sure other people are curious also. Please post some insight into your success! Way to go...you are definately using your sleeve to your advantage! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SophieJaneB 92 Posted May 2, 2011 WOW! I want to rock my sleeve just like you! OMG that is sooo amazing. You inspire me. My first appt. is Sept. 1st. WOohoo!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tiffy 0 Posted May 2, 2011 Thank you everyone!! And congrats to all of u on your weightloss also!! This is an amazing tool! As far as how I've done it.....the first 6 weeks were hell with the post op diet but I think now it completly changed my tastebuds! I tried to cheat and get a piece of chocolate and with one bite realized I don't like chocolate anymore (which is awesome because that was my weakness)....also I tried to drink a soda and it also tasted terrible to me. So now if I have any sugar head hunger I go to fruit and it works! I have always been a very picky eater and wouldn't even try many different things and I always ate crap and fast food. Now I have cravings for things I've never even tried! I also have to remind myself I need to eat a lot of the time because I'm never actually hungry. I eat a lot of tuna with no bread, I keep the carbs to a minimum during the week but unusally on the weekend if we have a carb with dinner I will have a bite or two. Breakfast is usually a carnation Breakfast drink and I only use reduced fat milk, lunch tuna or deli ham (no bread), dinner I usually only eat the meat and veggies of whatever I make for my family for dinner. I also ride bikes often and do P90x, I have to take it easy I find because I'm not eating enough calories to give me tons of to burn off. Any questions or suggestions on how I can do better or more?! I don't want u all to think I never do anything bad cause I have, and there have been many days where I have sat on the couch and was just too tired to do anything! There were days where we ended up eating out and I would try to choose the best thing for me but fast food is fast food. I hope this helps or at least gives u all some insight on what I've been doing or not doing lol..... Sophie good luck on ur appt in sept and u will do great! Best choice u could make!
