Sorry for being such a whiner. I was just feeling down. I do see that I'm luck though.

Doing well. I was just wondering about everyone myself. Started at 217 and down to 174. I've had to empty my closet twice and need to do so again. My monthly support group has clothing exchanges too. Feeling good and wishing I had done this sooner!

I too have changed my clothes twice in my closet, what a wonderful feeling. Hoping to do it again and again.

What is your goal to get to?

I would like to get to 140, I am 5'4'' Another 30 more lbs to go, but it seems to be harder now:(.

I don't have a number in mind really. I just figure I will know at the point I feel good. The 150's would probably make me happy. I am feeling so good already. I'm probably thinner now than I've been in 20 years! Haha

I started at 265, I'm down to 210 as of this morning. So, that's 55 lbs. down. I have at least 45 to go, but I know I'll get there. But, I have really good news! I just spent a week in NYC on vacation with my family - I let my rules slide just a little bit and had small portions of breads, some mashed potatoes, pizza and of course, a few Desserts thru-out the week. WAAAAY more carbs than I've had in a looooonnggg time! I never really over did it or made myself sick, but I got close a few times. I thought for sure I would have gained a few pounds, but believe it or not, I actually lost 1.5 lbs over the week! Whoo-hoo! Now that I'm home, it's back to basics for the next few weeks until Christmas hits... My goal is to be at 200 by New Year's... Fingers crossed!

Hello my fellow July 8 sleevers. I have not been on this forum for ages. Possibly because I have regressed and avoided taking ownership of my poor efforts

      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.
