Recommended Posts

Congrats on your sucess Dawn!!

I have not met my weight loss for Oct:think I am getting my first fill Monday so I am hoping to get the weightloss happening again.

But I have stayed away from the scale:) I have not been on the scale more than once a day.

Thanks Lila,

I am sure that the fill will help. I too have a love hate relationship with my scales. I now have a routine to weigh in friday and monday and that is it (almost always) It is kind of interesting because I notice I almost never loose weight on the weekends! Wierd- but I guess I am home and maybe eat a little more.

I am going to Quebec and MOntreal next week - I have to fly from the Arctic and can't wait to shop!!

Good luck with the fill.

Good job, everyone who made their goals, and who didn't. Who cares, right? As long as it's going down, it's all good. I'll let you know what my total is tomorrow.. but I don't think it's gonna be pretty, unless something miraculous happens in the last couple days. If it doesn't, I blame the gym!

      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.
