100 lbs gone in less than 6 months! Below goal weight!



Recommended Posts

Congrats. I had my surgery about a week after yours, but still have 25 pounds to go to hit my goal. It looks and sounds like the first part of the journey has been relatively easy for you, so hopefully the big next step of maintenance will be just as easy.

Thanks! It has been really easy for me. I'm very very lucky. I was throwing up for awhile there in the middle even when I was eating right. I'm hoping the maintenance is easy. I'm a little worried now to lose more weight.... I don't want to be too skinny (never thought I'd say that lol) and my doctor said I will keep losing still over the next year (18 months total).

It's ok to not have met your goal yet. Keep up with it and you will. Remember everyone is different. It also depends on where you started at and many other factors. Keep up the great work!! :)

It would great if you would hare your story on my site. Thanks and continued success

You look wonderful! Congratulations. I had RNY about 4 years ago and have good success as well. I am very happy I decided to have gastric bypass surgery. I started a site of my own to offer information and inspiration to others who are considering WLS or have had it and need a little encouragement. It would be great if you would share a little of your weight loss story on my site. I am always looking for inspirational weight loss stories to be shared there. Thanks for your consideration and continued success.

      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.
