Hello all,

Starting weight 368

Surgery weight 341

Today's weight 261

Had my surgery on the 24th of July 2013

Off all blood pressure, chloresterol meds, off my insulin pump but still shooting 15 units of lantus twice a day. I feel fantastic and I couldn't be happier about my surgery, my weight loss and my life. Best thing I ever did for myself and my family

By the numbers:

Starting Weight: 379

Current Weight: 321.6

Total Loss: 57

Long Term Goal: 160

In general, I feel good about my rate of weight loss and am feeling better. However, I need to work harder at getting in all my Protein, especially since I've added in weight training to my routine at the gym. I just missed my first mini-goal of losing 50 lbs by my birthday (October 15), but made it a few days later. Next mini-goal is 100 lbs lost by February 15...we'll see how I do :)

      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.
