Lol' date=' what can I say, I have stubborn fat. I knew beyond a shadow of a doubt, that I'd stall right at 200. I haven't been <200 since high school! I think they have a pool going at work to see how long it takes me <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

HW 312, pre-op (RNY) 255, current weight 200.6[/quote']

I stalled at 200 for two weeks!! Happy to report that I am now 197.8!! It will go but you might have to trick it!! I ate more calories then dropped it down for a day! Did the trick!! :)

My supply of pants is running out. I just went browsing through the clearance racks and picked up 2 pairs of jeans & a pair of denim capris in a size 16. (They are snug...but they zipped! And there is not a W after the 16. Highest size was 24!!)

Awesome! Doesn't it make you feel GREAT? :-)

Yep..especially since I got all 3 for under $30! That never would happen at Lane Bryant!

I tried on about 8 pairs and was able to buy what I liked vs what just fit!

I love being able to buy something because I like it. I used to buy anything based solely on fit. With way more choices available I can afford to be choosy. So happy lately! :-)

Medium scrub pants on today. Two months ago I was a 2x.

Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

Awesome. I was a 2X three weeks ago and was happy to move to an XL. But a medium!? That's great. Congrats. :)

Lol was just getting on to post rhe same thing. Left work for surgery on June 5th wearing a 2x top and bottom. Went back to work this week and I'm wearing a medium top and bottom and they're almost too big. So thankful I Mmm work in surgery and they provide our scrubs, otherwise this could have been quite costly!

I have a new boyfriend, and he is nine years younger than me. Last night I told him "take me into the bedroom" and to my surprise he whooped me up and carried me in. I've never been carried anywhere by any man. After my kitty giggling subsided, I told him that all I meant was that he should take me by the hand but nevertheless I couldn't get over feeling tiny for the first time in my life.

This afternoon I went shopping to find some new jeans that fit... I grabbed this pair that I thought were SO cute, but knew they would never fit me... I went in to the dressing room and guess what??? They DO fit!! And looked fabulous!!! I literally squeezed with delight because they are FOUR sizes smaller than my current favorite jeans (that have become huge on me). :) :) :)

      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.
