Recommended Posts

Am I reading this right? Did you lose almost 100 lbs since your February surgery 4 months ago? This is crazy amazing!

I have lost 100 lbs since January. I was 297 pre-op when I started my preop diet on January 7 and lost 30lbs before the surgery. I was sleeved on Feb 4th (weighed 267), and I now weigh 195 :) When I started the whole process I was 312lbs(October 2013)... I simply cannot believe how far I have come. It looks like we have the same surgery date! How is your sleeve treating you?

Congratulations!!! I know the feeling as I just made it to Onderland today!! My lowest adult weight was 190 and that was 10 years ago. I was only that weight for about a minute. I cannot wait to see 189. Goodbye to the 200's forever!

Congratulations!!! I feel the same way! I will never let myself look at that scale and see a 2 again. I see myself with only 50 lbs to lose and It is so very surreal. I have always had this huge daunting number and now, 50 lbs seems like nothing :) I will be 5 months out on July 4th, and I am still in shock of where I could end up by the time I am a year out! If only when I looked in the mirror I saw a size 14 girl... I still see 28 :/ I cannot wait until the 180's either! For most of my life this has been my goal. I would tell my self, "at 180 I will be happy." I don't feel that way anymore... When my bmi doesn't read "overweight" I will be happy! I want to be a healthy weight! I'm also striving to hit a size 9... I have never in my life been a single digit size.

      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.
