WOW! Congrats! :)

At 10 weeks I was still obsessing over the scale and driving myself insane. It was quite a long time before I realized that weighing myself every other day is actually hindering my progress and sabotaging my weight loss. Nowadays, I just weigh myself twice a month and its done wonders for my sanity (and for my family's too LOL)

I stopped weighing because I was getting so depressed by the stalls and I'm a slow loser. Much happier now. I also figured out I had to keep my carbs under 50 gms per day. Which has helped my weight loss.

Yay!! It took me forever to really SEE the changes in myself. I saw the numbers on the scale and the numbers on my jeans but it never hit me that I was changing. The first day it hit me it felt amazing! Congrats on the weight loss, but also congrats on seeing how far you've come!

      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.
