Recommended Posts

Ive lost 158 or 159 lbs. So far and im still losing. Its slower now..but still dropping weight.. at times I love this surgery and at other times I wish I would have never gone through with it... like when I want that extra bite of food. Or that whole cupcake or even an ice cold diet pepsi that hasn't passed these lips in a year...im so tired of water...lol

My scale made me its b***h... but I took that back!!!!! The scale is my b***h now!

Happy 1 year surgiverrsary to me ;)

159 lb

Down from a 30 jeans size to a 14 levi's

Down from a 4x/5x shirts to size Large/ Xlarge.

Down from a 46ddd bra to a 38ddd bra....

So yeah me!

Wow!!! congratulations. I hope I am as successful. I know what you mean about just a bite. I keep telling myself that the first bite is the best...after that it's just eating.

congrats on your success...like others, I can only pray I enjoy your same success when I am one year out...I think you need to update your ticker, girl! :)

ps

I am only 2 months out but already know what you mean about not being able to eat that extra bite...the times I feel this the most is when I have been at a restaurant and there is something I truly enjoy and can only eat a few bites...I know I should be happy to at least eat a few bites, but it's hard not to at least eat half of it :unsure:

Congratulations on your success. It is genuinely inspirational to me, being pre-op and undecided.

      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.
