I was just updating my weight loss and i noticed that my little butterfly on my ticker is almost half way. I did the math and i have 10 more pounds to lose until i am at the half way point!!!

This is putting things into perspective and i cannot wait until my half way mark!

How is everyone doing?? Are you at your half way point? how many more pounds until you are there?

Happy Halloween all!

BTW, i am dress as Rosie the Riveter...ya know, "We Can Do It!"

Doh! Premature send.

The other day I updated my ticker and realized I now have less than 100 pounds to lose. I was so pleased. It was like my own version of a "one-derland" achievement. Strange that I can smile over the prospect of facing a nearly hundred pound weight loss. I "blame" it on all of you, my VST buddies. Your support and shared stories keep me psyched. Thank you!

It is so awesome when your ticker tells you you have less weight to loss than you already lost! :D Congrats on your loss so far and almost getting to the halfway mark. You will get there before you know it!

I just hit the 1/2 way mark this week....it doesn't feel real.....

For such a long time being stuck between 240 & 250 pounds, I didn't think this would ever happen--so thankful the day someone told me about VSG

Way to go everyone, keep rocking your sleeves!!!!

      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.
