Countdown to Onederland!



Recommended Posts

Congratulations KY teacher:

I can't wait to join you in Onederland! I'm only 10.6 pounds away, but I'm sure it's going to take a while. Hopefully by end of April.

Do you feel different? I was thinking the other day that I know that I look thinner, but I'm still fat. I'm wondering when you start to feel like a "normal" sized person.

Thanks Sue! It's taken me a long time to get here, but it's great! I was banded in July, like you, but see that you have lost a lot more weight than I have...CONGRATS to you! :thumbup: I didn't really feel any different...just proud of myself for finally getting here. GOOD LUCK to you!

Mary Rose:

Sure have been exercising. I really enjoy it now, though it was a chore at the beginning. I walk at least 5 miles per day 6 days per week. On the 7th day I usually still get a couple of miles in.

Been walking my butt, and everything else off!

Thanks.

Sue

WOOHOO! I've wanted to post in this thread for a LONG time now and FINALLY get to! I made it to ONEderland on Friday, weighing in at 198.6!! I had wanted to make it by my birthday which was 3-12, but I was 2 days late, guess I can live with that :cool: Now I'm just 10 pounds shy of being down 100 pounds ..guess that's my next big goal. But being in ONEderland sure feels awesome! My hubby gave me a beautiful ring to mark the occassion!! WOOHOO!!! :mad2:

I just want to poke my head in and say "HI!". I have a ways to go, but now that I am in the 260's comfortably (which I haven't seen in so many years) I know I will want to continue until I drive through the gates of ONE-DERLAND!!

Congratulations to all who have made it already. Way to go!! :biggrin:

Hi all!

I'm very excited to say I weighed 209 this morning:thumbup:. Some of you are like, eewwww why is she so excited. I'm excited because I started this journey last April 23rd and I weighed 324. So, I'm down 115 pounds in just under 11 months. I'm hoping to be able to say I'm in Onederland by April 23rd.

See you in Onederland next month. Gotta go walk off dinner.< /p>

      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.
