Huge Goal For Me This Morning



Recommended Posts

The scale has not been my friend latley it has been saying 203 since 9/7. I try not to weigh in every day or weekly but I have been so close to 199. I have been weighting myself about 2 times a week since 9/7 and NOTHING it has not been moving it would get to 202 but then back to 203 and back and forth. So this morning I hopped on and it was 199.4 I was so excited. I have not been below 200lbs since 2003. Then I got up to 240 had my first baby then PCOS, then pre menopause at 27 :( Then 10lbs gain a year I would gain and loose but stay between 255 and 290. I could never get below 258 to be honest with myself. This is the best choice I have made for myself in a long time. I am so happy to have the outside match the inside.

Wow! Congratulations! I keep trying to imagine how I will react when I hit onederland. I was there 3 years ago, but I gained 110 in 2 years while in grad school. I can't wait to get back there.

      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.
