I Finally Hit The Two's! 51 Pounds In 7 Weeks



Recommended Posts

I am so overjoyed to see 299 on the scale this morning! This might sound funny, but it finally seems real! 51 pounds is alot of weight but when you're 350 pounds and every time you step on the scale you're still in the 300's, it just seems like it's going to take forever! I'm so excited to see the scale starting with a 2!!!!! SO EXCITED!

Congrats that's great. I was wondering do u exercise? I've lost 17 lbs in one week and nothing the next week is that normal? Sometime I feel like its not gonna work for me. I feel hungry or its an upset stomach once in a awhile I eat about 2 oz puree for Breakfast lunch and dinner. Is that to much? How did your first 7 weeks go like?

Thanks everybody! I saw someone ask if I'm exercising and I'm not on a regular basis but I REALLY NEED TO! I still struggle with energy level and when I pushed myself a few weeks ago I felt so bad for a couple days I'm gun-shy :(. But I see that I really need to work out and work on toning....I notice the soft skin! Plus I want to make sure that I'm building muscle and not losing it. Also, a little more detail....I started at my highest 350, pre-op I lost 17, surgery day 333. Today is exactly 7 weeks (lost 2 more pounds) and I'm 297. So 36lbs or an average of about 5lbs per week....I'm very happy with that pace and hope I can keep it up! :). Good luck to everyone and thanks for the support!!!

      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.
