Hello everyone it's been awhile... I had my cousin wedding this past weekend and of course I wanted to show myself off to my family that doesn't see me everyday... I weighed myself before I went I'm down to 189lbs Holla... I'm so thrilled and stoked with my progress... So I've lost a total since october 2012 pre op of 86lbs and total lost weigh since surgery 6/24/13 of 69 lbs ?de2c... I ate the seafood they had there but I forgot to not drink half hour after and I had to run to the bathroom and throw up but I only threw up the liquid so that's good ... And still having alittle trouble going number 2 it's like I'm constipated really badly and then I have to take a laxative to softin it n force it out ... But over all everything's good I'm still trying to get all my Protein in with just food lots if seafoods and chili.. And the occasional wawa protein smoothies before work... But I got a lot of compliments from my relatives that just boosted my self esteem... And my boyfriend (oh wow let's just say he loved me before the surgery but now after showing me so much more attention... I'm not complaining haha Hoping now for that ring in the near future lol)

My jewelry that didn't fit before now fits and my rings I have to get ring guards for it's just been amazing... How every inch everywhere is losing weight!!!

Congratulations! on the positive attitude and weight loss. you look great! i know you must be in the Philadelphia area or mid-atlantic ....you actually know what a WaWa is :-)

Have a great day.

I'm excited for my Doctors appointment tomorrow 3 months post op. Down 87 lbs since my first appointment with the doc. Down 70 since surgery.

Knock on wood I've been blessed. I haven't had any dumping syndrome and not tossing my Cookies. But, I haven't had any breads, rice, pastas. I'm feeling good.

I fell like all i do us eat and drink and drink and eat but I'm not ever hiring my goal of 850 cal/day. I'm getting all my Protein and then some but just can't seem to eat enough.

Any one else having this problem?

Here is a weird thing i noticed this week. you Ladies out there may not be able to identify with this, but here we go anyway :-)

in the past 30 years i have shaved my face every third day and never had any problems. i chalked it up to my irish heritage and fair skin etc.

i was apparently wrong! the hair must have not been long enough to get through all of the fat layers...lol. i now have to shave every day and decided to grow a full beard ( trimmed neatly) for the winter.

im kinda of psyched about this shaving thing...just sayin

Have a great 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.
