Maybe around 320lbs... and the after pic was taken June 13th, around 299 lbs... I say around because I didnt need no scale before to tell me my weight and i dont need one now... I refuse to be a slave to the scale... because if i had one i would be... Ill let my doctor do the weighing in!!!!!! I see him on tuesday... i hope to be around 295 by then... My highest weight was 344 around March... so i think im on track well!!

I LOVE your attitude! I tell women all the time...stop weighing yourself every single day! They worry so much about stalls and one pound fluctuations..but in the grand scheme of things, the weight will come off and there are so many other things to stress about... you look awesome! Good job!

Thanks for this post. I have def become a slave to the scale & get alittle worked up when there's only a 10th of a lb decrease or something. Then my rational side reminds me that the weight is coming off & I'm doing what I'm supposed to do & following my diet. Thanks for the reminder !!!????????

Congratulations! You're well on your way!! I only let my doctor weigh me for the first year. I had the same opinion as you...I would not be a slave to the scale and obsess about it. Good job!

      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.
