Been stalled for almost 2.5 weeks now hovering between 299 and 297.....I think it will be a tall order to get these 22 lbs in what is now 1 month left. Hopefully I can make it. Worried about my Dr visit on the 19th because he is not going to be happy if I am still stuck here, he will give me the 3rd degree.

I may not make my Halloween goal but I am in ONEDERLAND and 3.4 pounds away from having lost 100 lbs!!!:D I was sleeved on 1/29/11, almost exactly 8 months ago. Loosing 100 lbs was something that I wanted to happen but the idea was difficult to wrap my mind around and believe that I would be able to do. I've done WW, Atkins, Nutri-System, South Beach in the past and not been successful so I was skeptical while hopeful that the sleeve would work for me. My mom supported me on this journey and to thank her for her support I gave her a Bracelet that said believe on it. Over the summer I got a tattoo of the japanese symbol for believe on my wrist to remind me as I reach for something I shouldn't have, to believe I can do it. While it's been difficult I do believe. I would encourage anyone thinking about VSG, to believe. You can do it and the sleeve will help you reach your goals!

Posting a day earlier than normal, just excited to post my results for the week. I had major loss this week!!! Onderland here I come!!! 17# to go is still pretty aggressive, but going to get as close as I can.

Another slow week. I had to travel for work and was in all day meetings where they catered food non-stop. I have to admit I ate some things I shouldn't have and the days were so long I wasn't able to get in any exercise. They had Cookies, donuts, pastries, oh my god!!! I kind of feel lucky I didn't gain any weight.

I am loving this sleeve. I never thought I would be losing this much weight and keeping it off. My husband loves to hug me, he keeps threatening to pick me up. Everyone at work notices and tells me how amazing I look. I can't wait to see what everyone thinks when I get closer to my final goal of around 140lbs. It will blow their minds.

Just checking in!

SW-----CW-----GW-----Pounds to goal

229---219-----210-----------9

So far, so good! I've been stoked this last couple of weeks to be back and forth higher and lower than my husband (he was sleeved a year before me); as his weight bounces between 219 and 225, and mine has steadily crept down, I'm "this close" to achieving my goal of finally weighing less than my husband permanently--I already weigh less than him, but he's prone to up-and-down weight a lot more than I am, so I need a couple more pounds just to seal the deal. But it's happening!!! :rolleyes:

I haven't weighed in the 210's since graduate school, and I am 100% thrilled!!!

Good luck everyone! Let's keep up the good work!

      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.
