So Many Nsv..and A Few Sv Also :)



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery on March 8th.

I am down a little over 70 pounds which is actually not really hitting me yet.

Here is what I have jumped for joy over.

My scale will never hit the dreaded 300 mark again.

It will also not hit 250. I have not been under 250 since my early 20's :)

Bigger victories?

I am no longer on ANY medication. supplements are the only thing I NEED.

No more arthritis pain. NONE...EVER

No more CPAP machine....and my kids are not afraid I am going to die in my sleep!

No more antacids. No more blood pressure meds

NONE!!! All erased from my life.

YAY!

Silly things to many that make me smile

I ran 2 miles...and lived to tell about it...I did not even FEEL like I was going to die.

My dog LOVES her 3 walks a day! (she has dropped a few pounds herself

I am saving a TON of money...just the amount I was spending on soda and Snacks for my home was ridiculous!

My kids are eating a better diet...hopefully they will not get my "fat" gene!

and the #1 Victory

Today my 1st pretty bra and pantie set was delivered and I can wear it proudly COMFORTABLY

I have not had a pretty bra since I was 13 YEARS OLD !!!!!

I feel FANTASTIC!

      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.
