I did it! Finally hit the elusive 150 lbs! In every diet program I have ever attempted, they asked that I pick a goal weight and I always threw out "150 lbs". I have never, not once, actually made it. The lowest I got was 180 after 3 months of HCG (which, of course, I gained right back)

But after the sleeve...in 5 months I have lost 81 pounds and finally saw that 150 number!

I am thinking I might try to lose 5-10 more lbs just to get solidly in a "normal" BMI...but if I don't, I am okay with my size 8 jeans, size medium shirts and *150 POUNDS*!!!!

That is so awesome! Congratulations! And 81 pounds in 5 months is fantastic!

We are so similar. I am 5'6" and I have been on SOOOO MANY diets where I have set my goal at 155. The closest I ever came was about 176, but then I gained back up to 260 ultimately. I cannot wait to be where you are in a few months. You must feel AMAZING!

      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.
