3 Months Out And Down 81 Lbs !



Recommended Posts

I never thought it would go so fast but glad it is. I was stuck at 261 for about 4 days and yesterday I took a Fluid pill for my swollen feet, Got up this morning and was down 4 pounds . That put me down 81 total pounds since the pre diet. I still can't eat much. Maybe 2 grilled chicken nuggets or one pkg of grits. I/4 of a can of Soup. I did wake up with a charlie horse twice last night so I got up this morning and started drinking my green tea. I LOVE mixed berry green tea.

Down from 24/26 3x/4x to 18M - 20 W depending on the name brand. Some 16's in dresses.. I want to be at my goal by Christmas and I do see it doable.

Congratulations!!! I will be three months out in 4 days and I am only 67 lbs down. My weight loss has slowed to a crawl. I eat between 600 -700 calories daily, drink my Water, and walk. I am thankful for what I have accomplished and don't want to get discouraged because I know the weight loss will come. I am hoping to be half way to goal for my doctor's visit in Oct. that means I have 8 lbs to lose between now and then so wish me luck!

To be honest...I havent worked out but like 2 times. I have a high stress job from 8-5 and by the time I get home and by the time I get home I am too tired to do anything.

It's inspiring to hear you've lost 88 lbs and you feel you can eat too much because I'm one month out and sometimes I feel the same. :)

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
