Argon,

Look at how great you are doing! 99lbs is nothing to scoff at. Give yourself a Pat on the back and just start again this week. We've all been there and we'll join you in kicking the scale.

Happy lb hunting/target this week.

Congrats BlueGem on making the choice.

I was lurking here for quite some time before I decided to do the surgery. I have found this site to be extremly helpful. Welcome and good luck with the future banding. :D

Congratulations Bluegem!!!

Thank you.

I feel like a weird person.

Okay, you cannot type THIS, and expect me, or Yoda, for that matter to not respond! FEEL, WEIRD??????

Yeah... weird! I guess different too. I am constantly thinking "what am I doing trying to put these jeans/shirt/whatever on!?" Then I put them on, realize they're an 18, and too big.

I have lovely rolls on my back, they're shrinking, yes... but not fast enough. I honestly think if they were gone, I might be ok with everything else. They make me not what to wear anything too tight that'll show my 'back fat', or get trapped in it! Hopefully though, with the speed they're moving, at least I'll be getting down a few more sizes at least before these puppies are gone.

*edit - oh yeah... I'm not scoffing! I'm super happy and proud of the 99lbs. Maybe 99 even sounds more cool than 100?! I just want it to move already and let me keep going!!!*

      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.
