close to goal...



Recommended Posts

Hi all....Haven't posted in forever..nice to be back. I am about 25 lbs from my goal of 160. I am having trouble getting there. I don't really need a fill (i don't think), but I am straying and having issue with candy and a few Cookies here and there. :huytsao Being almost 2 years out I know what I can eat and how to get it down. I am exercising almost every day. I do cardio treadmill 3 times a week. Pilates once a week and flex and tone once a week(aerbobic with light weights). I also do weight training 2-3 times a week. I am going to start tracking food intake. It may be I am doing mindless eating. Anyone having any last 25lb eating plans????

Just wanted to say GOOD JOB!!! You have done great and its nice to see someone who has been banded a while. I was beginning to wonder where all the people were that were banded a long time ago....I guess you just move on after awhile....anyways....congratulations on your weight loss...Deanna

Congrats!! Sounds like you've done great, and all that exercise.. whew... I wish I could do one of those things LOL!! My 'quick fix' way to lose weight for any special occasion was to fall back on Atkins. If I do 0 carb, I lose weight rapidly. Not sure how it would work out in your lifestyle or how quick it would be if you're only 25lbs above goal. But thought I'd throw it out there!

Congrats 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.
