Recommended Posts

I am soooo excited. I am 8 weeks out and someone finally noticed that I have been losing weight. I have lost 45 pounds and have 80 to go but I was beginning to think you could even notice the 45. I have been on top of the world since.

More motivation now just because of that one compliment.

Feels good, huh Mich?!

It's great getting down to a healthier weight, but oh what a bonus when people start saying

"Hey you look good" :)

congrats on the weight loss!

I'm kind of weird. since I've been yo-yoing with my weight and have been at the same job for 23 years, I kind of wish people didn't comment because I always feel bad that I would eventually gain the weight back. I hope this time, I will have a tool that really works to help me maintain my weight once I reach goal.

      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.
