Recommended Posts

Happy day all!!!

Well I am so close to hitting my ultimate weight goal. AHHHHHHH!!! I have been at 140 for about 1.5 months now and nothing lol. I know I could do more as far as exercise. Any suggestions. My ultimate goal is 125. I have 15 more lbs to lose. :). It has been a year and 3 months since my surgery and have lost 107lbs

Thank you all

You and I have very similar statistics. At a year and three months I was also stuck in the 140 range, I think around 137. I didn't finally hit my goal of 129 until I was at 1 year and 8 months, and then I dropped to 126. I would say I have great advice for you, but I lost my last few pounds because I had three major plastic surgeries and couldn't work out for months, so all that pesky muscle went away, lol. I float now between 128-133 throughout the week and when I get to the higher end, or God forbid over it, I just go back to being extremely strict and I drop back down. In theory as long as you focus on continuing to eat well and workout, you should continue to drop.

A weight loss slow down has happened to many of us closer to goal. Congrats on all your work.

I am one of those people that the scale will not move unless I workout. I am changing up my work outs. Doing the same exercise over and over has slowed or stalled my weight loss. I held at 140 for a while.... I'm trying to get a better bounce range for maintenance.

      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.
