My starting weight was 280 And 1 1/2 later I'm 160. I'm 20 pounds away from my goal and I'm starting to struggle so maybe looking at these pics will help me. I'm not struggling from food or exercise my body has hit its plateau and my hardest stall yet!!

I stuck to the diet and never cheated or ate anything I knew wasn't good for me. I didn't eat anything that said it had any kind of sugar or high fructose corn Syrup. I walked everyday for at least 30 minutes...just walked. ... I remember when the nurse asked me to set a long term goal I said 120. She told me I should try for something more reasonable like 160. I agreed but inside I knew I wanted to be 120 ( even though the last time I was 120 I was in elementary school ). I was determined. Determination can take you as far as you want to go.

Hey Karin

That is what I would like for my goal to be. Can you give me an example of your daily eating schedule. Maybe you can be my mentor??? How tall are you?

Hw: 406

Sw: 376

Cw: 346

Surgery: 8/26/13

I seem to be a slow loser so far, with a couple of stalls, but maybe my body needs more time to heal. Each time I have pushed myself farther physically (running around taking care of a friend and her kids, walking 3+ miles), I have had an incision open a little and have a little drainage. So I guess I'm still healing.

      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.
