50 pounds and counting!



Recommended Posts

So I stepped on the scale yesterday and finally got what I was looking for........down 50 pounds!!! I am so happy to have reached this goal. It took me 3 1/2 months to do it.......but I did it! I am working on the Halloween goal and hope to be down 10 more pounds for this. I have gone from a 22/24 to a 16/18 and have lost just under 40 inches. I can't wait to see what the next 50 pounds is going to be like!! Life is much easier and I feel settled into my new life. Some days are harder than others but for the most part it is good. I am always looking for new recipes and fun food ideas to keep things out of the mundane and boring. This I think is a real killer to our psyche especially when it comes to eating lunch at work and finding something for dinner. On to the next 50!! :)

      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.
