Thank you.

That is what I love the most that she looks like me. I looked at a picture the other day of me at my heaviest and I couldn't believe it. It's kind of hard to look at pics like that :-(

Hi December Peeps! Everyone seems like they are doing great. I'm down 65 pounds. My date was 12/20/12. I feel great. My weight is coming off slow and steady. I loose about 1 to 3 pounds a week. Love dropping a size! It's fun when I have to go shopping because nothing fits! Wishing you guys all the best!!

Yes, it's great going through this together. My surgery was 12/10/12 and I'm slow and steady, too. About 1-3 lbs per week. I feel great as well. So happy about this decision.

Forgot to say that I'm down 63 lbs and have about 15-20 to go. Not sure where I want to end up. I'm 5'6" and thought 150 might be good but I'm not sure anymore. Have to see! I do know that 150 is no longer overweight so that would be great!

I'm 5'6 as well. Down 77. Current weight is160 and I had a goal weight but I'm thinking it might be too small. When I started out, I wanted to hit 130 but I might bump it up to 140.

I got my results back from my bladder test. It is normal thank goodness. So just one more complication I need to have cleared up from the hysterectomy. I started working out after work today. Before hysterectomy, I worked out after work. But after, I thought I would go before. But I would end up not going due to time. So I'm back in the wagon, still getting 80+g Protein a day. I have dabbled with foods such as a toasted English muffin. I also had a slice of mushroom thin crust pizza. Stomach handled it well. I hope working out again 5 days/week will help me lose these last 20lbs.

Snow, is that you in that pic??? Wow what a difference. Awesome!!!

I wished more Decembers would pop on here and give us an update and a picture.

I am loving my new life, my boyfriend is more than I could have ever asked for, and my family. I am so grateful for this surgery. I feel great, look great and it shows in so many more areas of my life. Definitely more confidence!!! Huge plus.

      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.
