I finally lost my first 50 lbs. I'm 3 mos post op. It was a struggle because I kept stalling left and right. I hope the next 50 lbs comes off easier than the first 50 lbs. Still gotta lose 112 lbs to reach my surgeons goal for me, and 132 lbs to get to my own personal goal.

sw 342, cw 292, gw (surgeon) 180, my gw 160, height 5'8

Fantastic job!!! Do you have a 50lb goal celebration planned? I plan to get a mani/pedi-which is something I normally don't spend money on but will when I reach 50!

I never thought about cerebrating my 50 lbs lost, but that is a good idea for every 50 lbs I'm gonna treat myself to a mani/pedi. Thanks for the tip!!!

      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.
