I can't believe I missed this thread. My surgery date was May 1 too. I started at 294.6 and today I'm 241.6...down 53! The journey has mostly been amazing. I feel so in control now - and happy to make such good choices! No more asking for a dealt belt extender when I travel or fear of getting on a ride in the amusement park and the seatbelt won't work. It's now about mindful eating and making sure I don't graze. Let's keep each other supported and motivated. Best decision I have ever made!

I started at 223. Down to 170. Has anyone started to experience Hair loss? I am seeing a lot more hair shed and I already have thin hair? Scary! I get 100 g of Protein a day and take Biotin.< /p>

Today is our anniversary! I wanted to see how everyone is doing! Personally, I stalled and am back to basics now. I am happy with results thus far (60lbs) but these last 15 are being more than stubborn!!

      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.
