Can't believe it's been a year already! Starting weight was 305 wearing a size 20 and I'm now 167 wearing a size 10. Total loss of 137 pounds!!!!! I'm 5'9 so I reached a normal bmi at 168. So happy I did this.

How's everybody else doing?

Congratulations! I know what you mean! I am 17 months today...woohoo! Started at 317 - size 26/3x and today am 155 - size 6/M. I am only 5'5" so I still have a few pounds yet to hit a normal bmi. Best decision ever! :D

Hey goalie! Congrats!!! I'm coming up on a year at goal. I have to watch what I eat to stay at goal, but it is easier. I'm still tempted by treats, but I am satisfied with smaller meal sizes still so overall to me it is much easier to maintain that it would have been if I had managed to get the weight off without surgery. Pre-op, I had a raging hunger and had to eat a fairly large meal to feel full.

      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.
