The Weight Keeping Falling



Recommended Posts

My curiosity got the best of me and I broke my own rule about the scale. I weighed today and not on next Tuesday like I usually do. I'm glad I did, two pounds off since last Tuesday bringing my total loss since surgery on 4-25-12 to 48 pounds. Losing very slowly but hoping this is a good thing in the long run. Also have dropped my insulin to 5 u q am and 10 u q pm down from 25 units in am and pm. Am on Metformin same dose as before but no Dylipizide as of now either. I would have posted on my ticker thingy but once again it isn't working and I don't have time to fool with it anymore.

They are telling me a t work to buy new clothes but that aint happening until they fall off me. Tops are now way to big but pants are just baggy not falling off yet. :(

Still having bigtime issues with food not going down right but I will deal with it as I can. SOme days are worse than others but they keep putting me off about getting scoped to see whats causing it. The PA says it's me and since I see her and not the doctor everytime I go in I guess I will never get to tell him what's going on.

Amyway just wanted to check in. Thanks Have a good day. Fixing to storm here so I'm outta here.

The office use to schedule me with a PA for the first 3 visits and I realized I needed to ask to be scheduled with the Doc. So now I always see the doctor and next month is my last visit with her. IT will be 1 year with no complications. Yayyyyyyyy! :)

The only new thing I have bought is 2 bras lol

Ok so yes some pants do fall down when I am going up and down the stairs and that’s no joke lol

But I refuse to buy clothes!

Thankfully I had a range of sizes from before anyway uk 26-38 so I am covered by a bunch of stuff I refused to get rid of when I outgrew them!

I also thank god for draw strings lol when I am just slobbing about I just wear lounge pants with draw strings and just pull the waist tighter lol

      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.
