AMAZING JOB! I'm almost down 100 (3 more pounds), but seem to be in a stall. Before surgery, the thought that I would have to lose over 100 pounds overwhelmed me. It just seemed impossible. Now that I'm almost there, it feels like anything is possible. I just never could have predicted it, how about you?

Thanks all! In response to a few. I did sort of hit my goal. When I started this journey, I said "If I could lose 100 lbs., I'll be happy. And of course I am thrilled. However, now that I'm here, I can really stand to loss some more. But it's all gravy from here. I no longer feel like I'm on a diet, this is just how I eat now. And I'm sure my body will let me know when enough is enough. So nothing will change for me. I'll leaving my goal on here as it was originally set, to remind me that I've exceed my own expectations.

I'm so grateful for my sleeve and my supportive husband. I know there is no way I could have accomplished this without it and him. But I also know that I get the credit for the progress I've made. I make the right food choices everyday and I go to the gym six days a week. But I'm no gym rat! I just walk the track. It's what works for me.

For those just starting out....I applaud your courage to take action, I know I was scared to death going into this surgery, but I couldn't be happier with my decision.

      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.
