Gratuitous ONEDERLAND Post!



Recommended Posts

Who goes on vacation weighing 202.8, leaves the scale at home, imbibes in a bit too much wine and pineapple rum, grazes a little on dry Snacks, steals a few bites of ice cream and still loses 3.4 pounds, now weighing in at 199.4?

This girl right here!

Now I am back to tracking, back to the exercise routine and determined to loosen up these size 14s I could button today. (Ignore the screaming wedgie in the back, I will not be wearing these quite yet.)

Wooooot!

Congratulations, welcome to wonderland! Sounds like you had a great vacation!

You will be trotting around in those 14's before you know it, without a wedgie. ;)

Thanks all!! I'm excited.

Oddly, I've only had four people notice my weight loss up till today. Really??? Sixty pounds lost and no one can see it? Then today, I had four random people ask me about it saying they REALLY see a big difference.

Can I get a WHAT!! WHAT!!! ???

It's true. Both my SIL did not notice any difference until I was - 90. At -80, I was a little disturbed they said "I looked the same." Who says this about -80 lb drop? I am sure 10-20 more lbs and people will notice your changes. If not, slap them with a wet noodle. :)

Congrats on the great progress...know we are both May sleevers...I just passed the 60 lb milestone (but started 50 lbs higher than you), and am just starting to have people who didn't know about surgery notice...I am losing it "all over" so I haven't had the immense satisfaction of having pre-surgery clothes "falling off" yet...although I am in smaller sizes, which I had ample supply of in my closet.

Welcome to onderland! And those that aren't noticing yet? Hold on to your soon-to-be too big size 14s cuz the next thing you will hear them say is "you're too skinny- you better not lose any more weight"

Congrats!

I have hit onederland also. Surgery June 3 at239 and now 194. Seems to be going slow as compared to some others. Gone from to an 18 pants to a 14...almost a 12. I'm having a very hard time eating anything with any solidarity. Very hard time eating or eating Protein. Exercising by riding bike or walking 30 minutes at least 5 times per day. Any pointers for me? Any ideas of what I can eat to satisfy calories and protein and to help weight loss start back?

      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.
