Waiting on ONEDERLAND!



Recommended Posts

I'm so excited! down 51 lbs since Easter. Surgery was on April 29, just three months ago.

However, once i hit 211, I started getting excited. Then at 208, I was starting to anticpiate the feeling of getting close to the big 199 mark. Now at 204, I can see it in the near future, and I'm practically giddy!!!!!

I haven't been below 200 in over 14 years. I just can't wait. Does anyone else remember getting this excited about nearing that number?

Yes. It took me longer tho, but still one was a huge milestone. It meant I had lost 66 lbs. It happened about 2 wks after my birthday and of course my goal was my bday so I missed it a bit, but am now at 185 and just refreshed my diet and went back to Protein Shakes 3 days a week to jump start. I have been better with my eating and my exercise. Just not a religion yet...my tiny tummy helps me not eat too much. So happy I did it. Congrats on getting close, keep up the good work to get there! $

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
