Almost 3 Months With Pics And My Head Not Cut Off



Recommended Posts

Wow you both look amazing. Funny we always find fault in ourselves but praise our partner, you both need to take a minute to pat yourselves on the back great job! I'm 2 1/2 weeks out and lost 14 kgs about 30 lbs. I wasn't whinging but did say it was not a lot and my son and I went shopping and he put a 10 kg bag of rice in the trolly when I asked what he was doing he said just demonstrating some of what I had lost. Touché

I have a thread here (or used to!) that said "I've lost a two year old" .. You should see if you can find it (I'm on an iPad so can't find easily). It lists weight equivalents and it's quite shocking to see how much weight we were carrying. I was doing planks the other day and realized in the old days, it would have been like putting a huge big bag of dog food on my back while trying to exercise!

I think at 30 lbs, you've lost as much as a 2 year old weighs. Wow.

Oh girl, my butt has gotten so much smaller I keep checking to ensure I still have one! I realize it looks better smaller but I don't want to lose all of it.

I was raised in India until I was about 20 years old. We like our women with a little meat on them. Way too many people in that country thin from actual starvation, you know? My idea of what's attractive was formed by that upbringing.

I suspect I will set my goal higher than some others because I do not want to lose my curves. As I say, still want the hourglass, just a little less sand in it :P

I'm with you on the hourglass thing!! I don't want to be too skinny either…never liked that!!

      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.
