Countdown to Onederland!



Recommended Posts

I crossed over into onderland! And I mean a few pounds into onederland! I just can't believe it! I have weighed myself three times this morning to see if it is really true. I kept thinking- is this battery low on the scale or something?And it said the same thing every time! I am finding it hard to even believe it can be true. I am not feeling all joyous crazy yet- I am still too in shock!!!!!:thumbup:

Wow renewedhope- I see you were banded the same month as me and have lost 76 pounds. I have only lost 50. Please share how you have lost so much so quickly- what kind of exercise/how much, nutrition?

Carrot, I typically stick with low carb. I know exercise is very important. It is an area I need to be more consistent in. Sometimes I am great and sometimes I'm not. Today I am starting a couch to 5k to get back on track. Here's the deal. I am not perfect. I am not even always consistant, but my band won't let me do nothing and I try to make good choices each day. If one day I don't then I just start new tommorow. I have good restriction and that helps a ton.

I don't do anything super amazing. You are doing great as well. You should be very proud of yourself. Just keep doing and you will get there.

Congrats to all of you who have made it to Onederland, and also to those of you who are almost there.

It's really a much more comfortable place to be.

You can do it! I never thought I would get there, and just barely crossed over into onderland myself. It is a wonderful feeling, and I don't ever want to leave this wonderful onederland again!

      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.
