Congratulations everybody! I was very happy with my week - lost 3 pounds even with two family parties, prime rib, all the fixings and desserts! I didn't even have dessert no Christmas day.

I'm so excited and had to share. I have been in a stall for about 2 weeks now...been teetering over 200 and going INSANE to the point where I was questioning whether the surgery happened and/or if I was the ONE person it wasn't working for....

Well, this morning, I hopped on the scale and I was 199.2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I haven't been below 200 in over at least 15 years! I actually did a Julie Andrews spin around my apartment (Referring to "the hills are a live...with the sound of music").

Just checking in. The day of surgery I was 240 today I am 187-190 I guess Fluid causes it to go up and down those 3 pounds. I am on dreaded stall right now. Yes I need to exercise more. Going join the ywca the middle of month. Been going with my cousin some to gym, but she seems not to be able to go regular and I have to stop this go one day miss a week or more mess. So I will go to both gyms. I have set myself a goal of 125 so I still have some more to go.

I did too. I gained three pounds back. I'm sick about it. I've noticed that I'm more hungry now too. I'm so worried about being hungry alot and not being successful. I am tracking and counting every calorie now though. I guess one day at a time

      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.
