Awesome job!!! You look gorgeous! I was sleeved 11/13 and I'm almost at 60lbs (57 as of this morning). I go for my follow up next Tuesday :). Looking forward to seeing what my doctor has to say.

I started at 233.5 and I am down to 196.5 as of this morning. My surgery date was 11/26/12 so it has been 12weeks. Going Slow ~ but I am exercising and feeling great and that is what it's all about - slow and steady will win this "race" B)

On the 7th I decided to treat myself to a weigh in. I made the choice not to weigh myself except at nut appts and surgeon appts and each month on my surgery date. Well on happy proud and jumping for joy because in 3 months I'm down 60 lbs and could not be happier!!!

How's everyone else doing???

That's great! On the 14th it was 3 months for me also, down 40lbs! My surgery day weight was 229. I have 22 lbs to lose to be at my surgeons target weight for me.... However I am shooting for the ideal body weight, 136! So my first goal is the target weight!

I was sleeved on November 29th and I've only lost 40 lbs. I was 228 in my day of surgery and I'm at 188 today. I feel like I'm losing at snail pace. I'd really like to get to my first goal of 150 by May 1 but I don't see that happening. My ultimate goal is 135-145.

40 pounds is great! For all the dieting I have done in the past I have never lost 40 in the first 3 months! ( I was feeling kind of behind myself until I put that in my mind) We will get there, stay positive:)

      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.
