2 Success Posts In 1 Day? Whattt?!?!



Recommended Posts

Well, I did it y'all!! My Body Fat is now down to 18.2%. At 330 Lbs, it was nothing but a wild dream to ever think I'd be right here where I am today. I am floored, seriously!!!

I usually only check on Sundays, however for the last few days I've been feeling incredibly thin. Thinner that I have yet and so far. So I checked and wow... My goal was 19%.. so I one upped it.. heehee!! I have a feeling it will even go lower, which is fine. As long as I don't go below 13.8% I will be fine (for my age group that should be the minimum) but DEFINITELY no lower than 11.3%.

On to the next phase of my life y'all - just to maintain my current frame and get my head in the books. Yes, this Semester I'm starting my schooling to become a Professional Fitness Expert and Nutritionist. I will specialize in the Super Obese and Bariatric patients. I am SO looking forward to this new chapter in my life.

My all the goodness bring blessings to each and every one of you. Keep your chin up! It takes time to get here where I am... patience my darlings. :) I'm going on 2 years post op in September.

You are going to be THE best fitness expert on the planet! Congrats on meeting ur goals!

This is probably the best thing anyone has ever said to me, so thank you. Seriously... it's taking a lot of courage for me to do this. I often wonder if I'll be considered good enough. :wub: I guess that's just the eternal fat girl in me talking.

Do it!!! I think everyone should always know where they stand with body fat. For me Goal is Fitness and Body Fat related. Weight is a whole other beast.

All right girly that is awesome! Now if u r comfortable I would love to see pics...what an inspiration for us:)

Hi Jill! I have tons of pictures in my gallery, I do believe they are available to look at by everyone. ^_^

      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.
