I haven't worn a MEDIUM since junior high!



Recommended Posts

I've gone from an xxlarge to a medium shirt size and I'm only halfway to my goal. This sleeve continues to amaze me.

Pant size... 24 down to 14 so far.... My weight in ticker is probably wrong. I only weigh at my dr office.

PCOSers!!!!!!!!! We finally have a tool to help us! :) :) :)

Good luck all.

Well I disagree, you should weigh more often. When you get into the maintenance phase it will be waaaay to easy to gain 5 pounds and not even know it. It is a good habit to get into to keep your weight in check. You don't want all of your hard work to go to waste(waist!!).

I have had people tell me in BOLD not to weigh so often. Well my two cents is to do what works for you. Just as we all lose at different rates our methods of getting there are different as well. What works for you may make me crazy and vise-versa. I think some people on this forum should remember that we're here for support and advice. .. not orders. Goog luck

Seela. Exactly. :)

Those giving orders never have all of the information and are making a lot of assumptions. Bless their hearts...

      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.
