13 Weeks Out And Over Halfway To Goal!



Recommended Posts

I can't believe it's just over 3 months and I'm already halfway there! Imagine if I actually added exercise to the program (which I will in Jan)!!

I am so excited! I am down to a 12 petite pants and had to buy new clothes smile.png

Knee pain...gone

feet hurting....nope

walk up those stairs...YES! I even spent an entire day walking and shopping and never once got winded or tired. I am real close to having prominent collarbones again. Here's the biggie....I can wear my wedding ring again!!! This was my NSV goal!

I do have real bad arms though. My arms never grew normally. They had this HUGE "u" shaped fat roll thing real close to my armpit and the rest towards my elbow was not huge. Now that it is shrinking, it is going to leave a long flap of skin sad.png I also noticed my butt is looking flat and saggy. Hopefully I can correct the butt issue in the gym.

Anyway, I am sooooo happy with the sleeve smile.pngsmile.pngsmile.png

Merry Christmas Everyone!

Thank You everybody! I remember whining because nobody has mentioned my weight loss. Well, to this day nobody has mentioned it....and I do not care :)

I am comfortable in my own skin again and do not need validation from anybody!

      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.
