Hi all,

Who's the newest member of the Century Club? ME!!! :D

My ticker is set to show my starting weight as 261.8 - but that was actually my surgery weight. My pre-op diet started when I weighed 272. So as of Oct 5th, I broke the 100lb mark and have entered the century club!

This is such a wonderful feeling! That it did not happen overnight (as I dreamed it would, at the beginning of this journey), and I had to work hard to shed each of those 100lbs make me feel so proud. For the first time, I feel like I've earned all the WOWs that I hear from friends and family! Every icky drop of Protein shake that I have consumed in the last few months is so worth it LOL

My next short-term goal is to be under 163 lbs -- which will put me at 74 kgs -- that will be a 50kg lost in total! I'm looking forward for that day, coz I think I may finally get the courage to post my before/after pics on that day! So excited! :)

So yeah -- just wanted to share this happy news with my sleeve family and wish all of you the best of luck in this journey!

See you all soon with another SV post!!!!

      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.
