Onederland Finally!



Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone!

I am 4 months and 7 days out from surgery and have officially gone from 267 pounds to 199 pounds post op! I am finally in the 100's! I have not see. That have seen my weight begin with a 1 since 2005.

This has been an amazing journey and I feel amazing. I must admit it has been an easy journey because my sleeve works for me. Even when I nimble on something I shouldn't my sleeve stops me.

I'm so so excited! Hope everyone feels as good as I!

Congratulations, ualaw. You're ahead of me and I am so ready for Onederland. Surgery, Dec. 4th at 257.2 pounds. This morning I was 201.2. I was going to be happy in Onederland by June 4 (my 6 month mark), so I'm ahead of that. Any day now!

Enjoy your new weight category!! "Swag on, even when casual" [from 'Blurred Lines']

Hi. I have not exercised at all. I eat normally with exception of I juice to help mitigate Hair loss which I have not experienced so far. I do try to eat Protein first. However I will admit that most days I don't get enough protein in. I don't drink Protein Shakes or eat Protein Bars. Just regular foods. A couple of bites of meat then a couple of bites of veggies then done. No bread. No white carbs. No soda. So sugar except for natural sugar from fruits and veggies.

Hope that helps.

Perfect thanks! There is hope for me! I'm not an exercise fanatic either but I'm working on that. I'm getting my Protein, still working on getting all my Water in everyday but it's a struggle somedays. How old are you if you don't mind sharing? I'm 39

I could be each of your mothers--I'm 58.5 years old! So with slower metabolism, I guess all is well. :-)

      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.
