Onderland! 1St Mini Goal Reached Yay



Recommended Posts

Ok guys......I am finally there. It is not by much but that scale has had a 1 in front of those two 9's for two consecutive days lol........I hit my first mini goal at exactly nine weeks, only one week later than I had hoped and I have to be honest in saying my sleeve did all the work. I slacked off on my walking and Water but have still continued to lose. Not as quickly as I would have had I done all the great and wonderful things I planned on doing but hey, my decisions and outlook on food are so totally different now that I really feel slow and steady wins the race. So many times I have gone on a crash diet, lost 10-15 pounds in a month and gained back double in 2 weeks! I know that the 40 pounds I have shed are gone forever......My husband is thrilled and the compliments are nice especially since people don't know I had surgery! So my ticker says 54 more pounds to goal and I truly believe that once I start and finish the Insanity workout (60 day program) that ticker will read more like 25 pounds til goal. Lets do it guys we still have the whole summer ahead of us and a winter where we can rock the tall boots because we have calfs, ankles a waist to tuck those ooooober cute sweaters into our skinny jeans! Ah the rewards of a little sacrifice!

Next mini goal............going to think hard and make it a good one!

      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.
