Peggy 53 69 Posted October 13, 2013 (edited) Sleeved 8/28 Start of the program I was 231 Pre-op I was 221. This morning I was 200! WooHoo!. So I'm averaging about 3 lbs per week Next week this time I should break the 200 mark. Also My BMI is 39 which means I am no longer Morbidly Obese. I'll take it., That's a victory in my book. Doing better with foods. Some days are better than others. Fluids is my challenge. If I can get 40oz , I'm having a good day Edited October 13, 2013 by Peggy 53 2 gamergirl and lissette86 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Somewhere on here a gal actually wrote her Water or "liquid" schedule down....she had it to an art. My problem is remembering to drink at the appropriate times. Then suddenly its time to eat and I have to wait again....only to forget again! Silly but important because we don't want to become dehydrated.. Btw... my surgery was 8/21 So... 2 months since surgery Surgery weight 296 Weight today 253 Total loss to date 43 pounds gone forever! 2 sophiepants and TV-Duhhh!!! reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

italian-girl 152 Posted October 26, 2013 Ok so those are my before surgery early in the year, (feb) then the 3 pic is before surgery 1 month out then 2 months out and the last pic is my 1 month vs 2 and 1/2 months out.. I'm actually pretty shocked that my 2 month and 2 and 1/2 months out pics look so different.. In general it's crazy to see such change! But exciting too!! Started at 292 in February this year started seeing the nutritionist in late feb. did all the requirements for Aetna and had surgery 8/12/13. Day of surgery weight was 264 and today I weigh 237.5 ( those half pounds count!) Inches melt away faster than lbs! I'm really happy with my results so far and looking forward to continued success 3 crowsnestmama, lissette86 and gamergirl reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
