Good morning everyone! I had a 3.4lbs loss this week! Whooo! Hooo! I am at 164lbs and my jeans are getting baggy. Tried a couple of pair of jeans at Walmart yesterday but no go. My tummy is still too big..oh well hopefully my apron will start to shrink. Going on a 3 hour horse back ride today so that should be fun. Have a great week!

TMI....still having diarrhea issues really bad so will call bari doc next week for help...it is getting really old.

Hi guys! A .4 loss this week for me which puts me at 170.2. Dr wanted the weight loss to slow down while I am healing and it appears it is - have doubled calories to what I was eating before, up to 800 now so I suppose it is time for the dreaded stall everyone talks about since I haven't had one yet at almost 3 months out. It's all good, just want to feel better at this point and weight loss is taking a back seat for now. Have a wedding to go to next Friday and so tried on the 16's I have in my closet - they fit! I do need to find a top that looks nice and not baggy. Went through my tops and got rid of some already, kept the really basic long sleeves to wear - I work from home so it will work for now.

I had a 2.6 lb weight loss this week but am getting hungry... I don't know if it is because I indulged in a couple of small candies around Halloween but my hunger is definitely up this week. Also, it is that TOM so that could be the issue. I do hate it when I just want to eat and eat...

Hi all! I'm down 2.5 pounds this week weighing in at 220.5. I still feel like a failure most days so I have to focus on my ticker and smile. I really want to get to 217 before Thanksgiving. Hopefully that's do-able.

Hope you all have an awesome week. I'm planning a really stict diet and exercise plan this week so I can't wait to weigh in NEXT Saturday. Yesterday was completely awful... football, wings... you name it, I ate it. But I'm going to dust myself off and MOVE ON.

Been stuck this week... TOM does that....I think my hormones have gone hay-wire. I'm going to doc this evening to see if there is anything to my "near stroke experience". Still not eating much. It's been an interesting week.

      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.
