It's finally official- I've lost 100 lbs since November (60 before VSG and 40 after)! Buh-Bye don't care to see you ever again!!!

Now I still have a long way to go but got to Celebrate big milestones like this! Woo Hoo! I want to reward myself with little things so I bought a nice watch to signify my 100lbs. Don't want to celebrate with anything food or alcohol related as I would've before and I don't want to buy clothes right now so a watch it is!

What do you reward yourself with when you hit a milestone or once at goal?

Wow, congratulations on all your hard work! 100 lbs! Amazing! I can't wait until I can say that! Even more impressive is that you lost 60 of those lbs before the sleeve! That's tenacity! I think a watch is a great reward! I do the same thing-- I buy myself scarves, necklaces, shoes, and things that will still fit after I've lost weight. Another great reward is to get your hair done, get a facial, or get your brows waxed (if you have two caterpillars like me!). All of those things make you feel good but will still fit while you are losing weight! Enjoy your success!

That's fantastic and such a great idea about the watch! So, even when you lose more weight, you can just take a link or two out! Good going!smile.gif

Great Job! When I hit my first big goal my husband bought us a new living room set! I am 1 pound away from my goal weight not sure what I will do to Celebrate that. Just want to mention that it may not be a good idea to buy shoes. I have gone down one whole size:)

Congratulations!! You should Celebrate all the milestones with what ever makes you happy. If its clothes or jewelry or a trip to a spa. You deserve it for all your hard work and tenacity. Keep on working that sleeve.

      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.
