September Was Your Progress?



Recommended Posts

Well I had 110 lbs to make it to my doctor's goal. I have lost exactly 50% of that excess weight since September 26th.

That also means I have lost approximately 23% of the body weight that I started with.

I am right there with everyone else. I was sleeved 9/14 and everything seems to have slowed way down. I am still eating right' date=' drinking, etc. etc. I'm down 57 almost 58 lbs and was right on target, then it seems like I've been stuck since January losing the same 2 lbs! UGH! I'm trying to be patient, but like NGM said I was hoping to be closer to goal at my 6 months! I see people who make goal by 6 months and I think what am I doing wrong! I have gone from an 18/20 to a 12 in pants and from a 1x or 2x in tops to a M or L so I know I doing all right, it is just very frustrating for the last month and a half![/quote']

SAME HERE! ugh, its frustrating. I read your post and it detailed my situation to the point.

Bless your heart, someone who is actually shorter than me. I am almost 5'0". I think 4' 11" and a half. My doctor's goal for me is 130. I am currently going between 185 and 187 which is fine with me since so far I don't have much hanging skin and don't want any. I seem to be losing about 6 lbs a month now. Hopefully in 6 months I will be down to 150. Anything is better than 240.

I have a new NSV. I can now put my pants on without sitting down and can cross my legs at the knee now.

Since Everyone is posting their measurements. I wish I had taken my measurements before, but at least I'll have these so I can reference them when I'm closer to goal and on a plateau- or if I don't get off this plateau I'm on now.

I took mine but lost them.... I used a belt that I had from then to at least get my waist-- if that helps?

Hadn't thought of that but I don't have any belts from back then because I never wore anything but stretch pants. But I do have one pair of pants that did fit that only had a stretch waistband - if I didn't get rid of it yet - and it barely fit so I could stretch that out and measure to see what the measurement was.

Or I could take an old size 9 pair of underwear and stretch them out to see how big around the waist they are. I'm pretty sure I have at least one of those laying around.

      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.
