I work in the city of Irving. Live in the Keller area. Been in Texas for about 10 years now and still discovering it's vastness. I am 11 weeks out and am down 68lbs since preop liquid diet. Have good weeks and bad weeks in loss. Averaging 4-6lbs per week. I would love for it to be higher but every bit helps.

I'm about 100 miles away, we shop in Dallas a lot. And go to and from the DFW airport several times a year. If you were there this weekend we could've met up :(

Wow. I hate that we couldn't meet up. So sad. Maybe another time. ????

Girls!!!! I'm officially down 60 pounds!!!

Jen- holy sh!t, I hope your mom is/will be ok!

I wish we all lived closer and could work out and get skinny together! I also wish I was in Texas because I'm sure it's WAY warmer than it is here.

Hi all. My mom will be alright. She has had ten surgeries on one knee so that knee is very fragile. She sees her orthopedic surgeon tomorrow. Her left foot's X-ray looks awful. They think its a torn ligament. Poor thing. Ultimately we are grateful she is okay but I fear for her poor knee and worry she won't be able to walk again. She's been on crutches and in a wheel chair ever since the accident on Sunday.

I'm glad she's going to be okay, even if it's a long road to recovery. How did the person who hit her manage to do such a thing?!

You sure are! We're kicking fats as5, and not backing down. We may be slow losers, but we're losing. And that's all that matters. <3

Haven't been on in a while. Down 48 lbs since highest weight. Very happy. Had my 8 week appointment with the surgeon last Friday. He is pleased with my loss and I was very happy with that.

My battle has been heartburn. Have to make sure I take meds everyday for it. Working out 4-5 times a week. Hope everyone is well!

McKinney is pretty close. Some of my coworkers live out in that area.

Jen I am very sorry to hear about your mom she will be in my thoughts on her road to recovery.

So happy to hear about everyone's success. I agree we may be slow losers but on the right track to keeping it off completely!

      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.
