I took part in a Quest for Onederland on Facebook and my original goal was to be there by the end of summer- September 21st. I started at 237 on June 26th and though I did not reach it by then I hit Onederland today, weighing in at 198.4. That is just short of 82 pounds down since my pre-op started April 25th.

I really encourage you all to join some Facebook groups as the daily, constant support and encouragement is simply amazing! Quest to Onderland is a great one!

ANyway, I promised I would dance for Onederland and dance I did ;-P

Love the video, Meggie! You look amazing. What is your next goal??

Thanks!

First quick goal is to weigh less than my 19 year old son :lol: - he weighs 195 (he's 6 foot 3 but pay no mind to that!)

Next goal is 180 as that will be 100 pounds lost.

Final goal is somewhere around 160-170 - I will decide as I approach it!

      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.
