Well I am down 5.6 since last time I checked in on February 25th to 151.2. A little more than 20 lbs to my loose goal of 130. I'd really like to get to 120 or maybe 115 being 4'11''. Went on vacation 2 weeks ago and did lots of walking and driving, more than I have done since my leak. I think I really needed that, it kicked me in to gear and got me back in the swing.

How is everyone else doing?

Hi Libbe

I am doing really great too! I weigh 143. I am 8lbs away from goal. It seems impossible to get there. I am tall too though. 5'7. So people do think I am thin. I just got my blood work back and everything is perfect! No more high cholesterol. Yaaay. So happy. Even having gone through the ringger with my stricture I am sooo happy that I had this done. I am happy to hear you are doing so welll Libbe

Congrats on being close to goal!! Mine is still located in a galaxy far, far away! Lol! I started my journey at almost 300 lbs & I'm really working hard on accepting the fact that I'm not dreaming, this weight loss is real, and that I'm not going to wake up from this wonderful dream! I'm enjoying every single second of this journey & I KNOW that I will reach my goal--and that is priceless! :)

I was sleeved on 2/20/12 and as far as I know I've lost 43lbs. I don't own a scale, so I only weigh sporadically. I think I've lost more, because last night my pants fell down! Lol! Fortunately, I was at home! :)

Oops! I have alot left to go! My goal is not concrete, but somewhere in the range of 125-135. I'm not picky right now. I'm sure I'll feel differently after I start working out. What's your goal?

      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.
