Down nearly 80lbs



Recommended Posts

Hi All!

Its been too long since I popped into this site and I just wanted to say I am still really thrilled with my surgery. It has changed my life in so many ways. First of all I am down nearly 80lbs since May 10th of this year, I guess about 4 1/2 months. I feel amazing, my energy is through the roof and I am having fun for the first time in a long time. I don't regret this decision for one second and I find something new to be excited about all the time. I recently started back to school, working towards my Registered Nurse, and we bought a house. I also recently went on a religious retreat and accepted God as my Lord and Savior. So, its been a big year for me and I am so looking forward to all the new things that are bound to come my way as I continue on my weight-loss journey.

I wish everyone on and connected to this site the very best that God's love has to offer and I pray for continued health and healing as well.

Take care!

Here are a couple recent pictures. My husband kept telling me "your butt is disappearing!" and I didn't believe him until he took these! Lol

How wonderful to "meet" you as a fellow sisiter in the Lord, and an RN. I have just started my journey as my surg date is 10-13-11, so your success is a true inspiration! I started my relationship with Christ over 30 yrs ago, and it truely has been the most wonderful joy I could imagine this side of eternity!

      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?

      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.
