I have arrived in One-derland!



Recommended Posts

Good morning everyone! At least it's morning here in California. I have some exciting news to share. I am a week from being seven months out and this weigh day marked my 100 pound weight loss. I am down to 167 pounds and 33.5 inches all around my body, I have lost 10 pant sizes, I'm starting to get muscle tone now, and what I'm super excited about- I FIT ON ROLLER COASTERS AGAIN!

Tell me something you were excited about when you hit One-derland, or what you hope to do once you get there.

Congrats on all the success!!! I have lost 8 pant sizes so far, but haven't really noticed any muscle tone yet. Two days ago I ran a 5K race. When I get to my goal weight I am going skydiving and hangliding.

wooohhhoooooo for you!!!!! awesome!!!! :D

my all time goal was to fit comfortably in an airplane seat. I have a daughter who lives an airplane ride away. So I was soooooo excited to get on the aircraft and put my arms down by my sides and had extra room on each side of the arm rests!!!!! I almost cried on the airplane, I think I did tear up a bit!!!

Wow that is amazing and inspirational!!! I can't wait to be there. I had my surgery on 2/5/14 and am down about 30lbs so far. I can't wait to be able to go on any rides with my daughter without worrying that I won't fit and be embarrassed when I am made to get off the ride. Any suggestions on how you lost so much so fast? Just seeing if there is more I can do!!! I feel like it is slowing down.

      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.
