100 lbs gone forever



Recommended Posts

Today I finally hit 100 lbs. had surgery May 20th, 2013. I was considered a light weight since I only had a hundred to lose. This is not the first time I have been at goal, not even the second I think. But it will be the last time. I promise. I am not doing it again. This time is different for alot of reasons. First, surgery.. Second I am no longer on a diet, I am living. I have learned to eat to live instead of living to eat. My sweet tooth is gone, I eat healthy, Protein is very easy for me to get. I do very little carbs, take my Vitamins and feel and look pretty good. I am loving life. If anyone is having doubts about having the surgery don't. I have not had any problems, can eat any food and would do it again in a heartbeat. As DL says I AM loving my new life, and you will too.

Hi, congrats to you !!

I am 1 month out and am struggling with what I should be eating now. I don't like fish or eggs and I don't seem to have any restriction. Any advise you can offer would be appreciated :)

      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.
