5 Months Out Today Down 47 ;)



Recommended Posts

I'm feeling good. Other than my hair is falling out quite a bit the past month and I was stalled for about 6 weeks. Finally down about 1.5 this week. I started exercising 5-29 and basically stopped losing til now. I do feel stronger and look firmer already so that's a plus even though I'd like to be down about 10 more pounds this far out. I want to get to 130-135 and I will be happy with that anything less is a bonus. For my height 5'0" I really dont want to go below 125 bc i dont want to be super small I'm at 158 right now. My joints and back and legs feel alot better too Sometimes goal seems soooo far away but I think it will happen even if it's slower than I'd like. I would do it all again! This has been a great experience for me!

      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.
