I am finally at onerland!



Recommended Posts

I have been stalled for about 3 weeks at 200-201.5. Today after walking all weekend at fall festivals I finally hit 199.6!!! I graduated high school weighing about 190, so it has been about 20 years since I have seen the one on the scale!!! I had the sleeve done on June 15, 2015 and my pre surgery weight was 260. I have lost 60 lbs in 3 1/2 months. I have already gotten rid of all my clothes and am amazed that I am wearing size 13/14. Before surgery I was wearing 22. I am on cloud 9 right now and am celebrating tonight with another walk and maybe I can talk my hubby into a back rub!!! Picture is from my daughters graduation May 15 and then this weekend.post-255575-1444049610124_thumb.jpg post-255575-14440497155864_thumb.jpg

That's amazing! So happy for you. I'm in a bad place right now. Had surgery on August 11,2015. I was 280 day of surgery...I am now 243.5. I have been 243.5 for over a week now. I'm frustrated...sad...and missing food so bad that I cry all the time. I'm Italian and used to be a huge pasta...bread....cheese person. Yesterday my husband made an amazing sauce and I sat there as my family made yummy noises and ate my favorite things. It didn't bother me before this stall but now I'm miserable. I exercise 6 times a week...35 minutes on the treadmill at 3.2-3.5 and then lift light weights for 15 minutes. I don't know what to do. I just cracked into my kids candy for the first time...tiny bites of butterfinger and babe Ruth. It was glorious...I'm waiting for my stomach to explode or do something. I'm so depressed.

I was stalled for about 3-4weeks at 201.2. You will get there. I had to up my food intake a little, and I stop pushing my self so hard and when I kinda was like whatever, it happened. I know how you feel but don't give up. Just think about the new healthier you!!

      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.
