No longer SUPER-mobidly obese!



Recommended Posts

YAY.. My BMI is under 50 as of today which means I'm now officially no longer "super-morbidly obese" I'm now just regular old "morbidly obese" But wait... there's more........

I'm also out of the 300s!!!! 299.5 baby.... but wait... it gets better......

I haven't even had my surgery yet!!! Down 30 pounds in the past 10 weeks and a total of 61 pounds from my highest weight.

Today's victory is definitely going to give me some good motivation to plow through the next month while I wait for my surgery.

That is great. The smaller you are at surgery is less complications. Avoid the food funeral jitters!

Good luck!

      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.
