Recommended Posts

Wow, very sureal to say the least I am at 204 today. 69lbs gone in three months. 5 lbs from onederland!!! I feel fantastic most of the time, and have really hit the everyone is noticing and commenting stage. I can say I honestly don't mind the female attention. :-) nice for the first time in my life! I bought a new riding vest today, a large. I bought it and loosened the side laces (leather motorcycle vest) so I think once I hit goal I can tighten it back up and it be perfect. :-). I was wearing a 3 xl vest!!!

Well I have stuck with eating protien and trying to get my liquids in. My work is hard so that helps and I don't eat anything fried, fat laden. I do get in 60 or so carbs a day as I believe the body actually needs those carbs to process and synthesis the protien. So I don't eat much, an try to keep it clean

      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.
