My one year anniversary



Recommended Posts

Here are my before and after pics....one year today. Dr says I lost 102% of excess body weight. I weighed in at 157 lbs today down from 285 a year ago.

I would like to that every one on the forum who have been supportive in helping me to achieve my weight loss goals. The road has been rough but I am extremely happy for the struggle! :)

You look great girl!!! Congrats!!

My surgery is June 4th.... Absolutely cannot wait to be talking about my one year anniversary! I am so sick of hearing friends and family talk about everyone they know who gained the weight back! Any advice on what to say to those stupid comments?

Why even bother responding. Just follow the program and show them a success story

Just say wow it's really sad for them that they could t make a lifestyle change. Every surgery is individual.

I celebrated my one year on 4-30-13 and I have to say... It's a shock when I see pictures of myself. It used to be a shock before and I deleted every picture I could find... However, lately I feel like I've lost my way. I drink wine, don't watch my carbs (although I'm careful of the ones that really make me feel uncomfortable, ie; rice, Pasta and bread)..I really need some motivation and a workout buddy. Plus this unexpected fact...since I've lost weight I feel like I look at least 10 years older...anyone else experienced this?

Overall, however, I have to say I'm so happy! I weigh 130 fricken pounds!!!!!

Jen you don't look older to me. My surgeon never told me not to ever eat the junk food just in moderation & I have self control and why start with the bad food to become fat again that's how I feel.

      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.
