One Year Ago I Started Blogging My Journey...



Recommended Posts

I have been in 7 countries in the past year and have lost 83 lbs and reached my goal weight. I posted the TOP TEN things that were the biggest parts of my journey on today's blog; plus two passport photos taken a year apart...even if you don't read the blog, these photos say it all! I wanted to thank Alex and all the people on the VST forum who have followed my year long journey on www.queenofcrop.com; you have been an inspiration to me every step of the way!

Mahalo, thank you, Dankuwel, etc....

Hi I have been reading your journey all day and have not even stopped for a coffee it was that interesting. I am so pleased to hear how natural a loss you had at a few pounds per week and also how interesting to hear about the different places you visited. I live quite a ordinary but wonderful life here in Scotland and will be finding out next Thursday 25 October when I will be sleeved and due to your very informative blog I am so looking forward to my journey.

Thanks again

Elizabeth

Hi Elizabeth and welcome to the forum! October 25 is the exact date I had my surgery last year so I think that's a great sign for you! Keep coming to the forum for lots of good information and if you have any questions...thank you so much for reading my blog. I think we should have a European group....I'm not sure how many of us there are. Good luck and keep us posted on when you get a date.

      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.
