Take at look at my ticker. Do you see it????

I almost fainted when I stepped on the scale today!!! I have flirted with one-derland for the past three weeks. I refused to get frustrated. I refused to accept defeat. I refused to be negative. I kept saying...it will happen. And it DID!!! I'm officially in one-derland!

Let me tell you...I've started seeing this great guy. He knows about my surgery. I told him because I didn't want to feel awkward when we went out to eat. He's losing weight, too. He's supportive. It's sweet. I've been enjoying my life while waiting for those three little pounds to decide to fall off my body.

Now, I get my new tattoo. So, the phone call will be placed today to make the appointment!

Hope everyone else has a wonderful day!!!

Di

You did it! And that is one lucky guy to have you in his life. Enjoy every moment of Onederland -- you deserve it! I really hovered at that gate, too, and what a wonderful feeling to have it happen all of the sudden. Yippee!

Thank you Bandista! I kept the faith because I had seen others hover there. I knew it would be my turn eventually. I refused to "diet" to get there. I've just been waiting patiently for my body to accept the fact that it wanted to weigh less than 200lbs...lol

Awesome job! I have been hugging the 200 mark for a couple of weeks as well. I just keep waiting for the day I enter the onederlands. You are such an inspiration and keep up the good work.

Yes! 157 pounds?? Incredible! I entered Onederland, went out, back in, back out. That 200 mark is a difficult one. But I'm gonna keep on keepin on. I'm so proud of you. I'm thinking about a new tat also. Post us a pic!

      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.
