I cheated at work again and went in the exam room and weighed myself( I'm supposed to wait til appt on Sept 11) my goal was to hit 299 lbs by the end of August, well I was at 300lbs and my shoes weigh exactly 1lb, so I'm at 299lbs!!!!!!!! First milestone complete, I started in January at 388lbs, on surgery day June 10th, I was 346, so this is an awesome accomplishment for me, and I was emotional because I haven't been under 300lbs in 31years, I posted to my friends on FB but wanted to post on this forum since it has been a big part of my journey, so I apologize, and even started ahead of schedule on next milestones,

1. Hit 250lbs

2. Arm curl 80lbs @ 5 reps( I am at 60lbs @ 3 reps now)

3. Get new scrubs at 3 or 4x instead of 7x ( I've lost 10 waist sizes)

I'm not stopping because I love the forward momentum, I'm addicted to all this now........ Lmao

Hi! I'm using a computer so I don't know anything about making one on the app, but it's easy if you're on a laptop. Just click on your username in the upper right corner of the page, and the third option down in the left column says "My tickers." Click on that, and on the right side it will have the option to create a new one.

      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.
