Bigest Loser



Recommended Posts

Ok so I swear I have never been more disappointed in my self till today me and hubby watched Biggest Loser on netflicks for motavation to change what were doing and I realized I was bigger then every single person on there I started crying my heart sank :-[ even the really big guys were less then me and today I hit my breaking point! I don't know how I have gotten to this point ! Why haven't I done anything sooner? Why didn't I put down the fries and hamburger and go for the salad? Gosh lee I just want to be healthy and fit and be able to ride a roller coster try on clothes in the stores my friends are in and not just shop for accesories. I'm only 21 years old an at 288lbs some people don't gain that while 9 months pregnant and I'm sorry I'm ranting but I have to admit it feels good to get this all out.IF you read all this thank you and if you have any advice plesase share my heads down and I just need someone to talk to.

Oh Roxy! My heart sank reading your post. I am 1 week post-op and let me tell you, been there done that! It's so hard losing weight, its so easy to just keep doing what we are doing. Change is hard and uncomfortable. On a diet we can salad all day long but still want a hamburger and fries.... You are young and it sounds like you are ready for change. Start a daily and weekly goal. Drink 64 oz of Water daily, eat one salad a day and portions, find an activity you enjoy, eat Breakfast, and the more Protein the better. Don't be hard on yourself and make your health your priority.

Sending you hugs!

I completely understand. Im the youngest in my family and the biggest. I weigh more than my dad, my mom who had five kids! And my sister who had 2 and 3 kids. I really was depressed and felt like it happened so fast. It's not a easy process but you actually see the weight come off for once.

I can relate. Im so glad i decided to get the surgery and am excited for my life afterwards. Its depressing when you feel bad about who you are and know the only one to bpake is yourself. Keep your head up girlie. With hard work and dedication you can feel better. I know 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.
