Today is 10 weeks from my surgery date on April 2nd. Just got on the scale before my shower and I have lost 50 lbs. Yay! That makes me happy!! :D

This is great! My surgery date was 4/2 as well and I'm down 49 pounds!!

My youngest son graduates in a few hours, I have a new outfit and I feel good......life is grand

I can't wait to read more of everyone's success stories.

I ate 8 potatoe chips and feel like i cheated myself. 8 is better than a bag i guess. Will start fresh tomorrow!

I sometimes eat a few but it is what it is like you said better then a whole bag

I have only thrown up one time in 10 weeks. But I really have felt sick to my stomach all day!

      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.
