It's official 100 Lost



Recommended Posts

I had my RNY done on 8/10/15 and as of yesterday I am down 100 and feeling AMAZING!!! I only have about 45 more to go and my question is how does our body or system know it's time to stop losing more weight? It's coming off so fast it's almost scary not knowing if it's going to stop when I need it to?

Isn't that just a GREAT feeling!? What an accomplishment! Congratulations.

The weight loss slows when you start eating more/exercising less. I only know of one person (my sister) who was told she'd lost enough weight and to start eating more. Just enjoy the ride! Believe me, there will come a time when it won't be so easy and the wt loss will slow down. :)

Wow.. Awesome????. I had my rny on June 24th and am down 70 lbs. I started at 312 and am now 242. I'm 61 yrs old and only 5'1". I've been worried that my wt loss has slowed down too much. I'm only losing 2 to 3 lbs a week and sometimes none.

I have only just started to walk because I have arthritis in knees and ankles. I was wondering if you could share an example of what you eat in a day and whether you are exercising. I know everyone is different. I've just been worried that I might be doing something wrong. Your success is inspiring!! Congrats!!

Hi and congratulations. I had that discussion with my surgeon last week. I am still losing quite a bit of weight and about where I want to be. She said as long as I feel good, am in a healthy BMI range and there are not concerns that I am not getting enough food that it's fine. We may keep losing weight up to 12-18 months post-op. If it becomes a problem with malnutrition there are options, appetite stimulants and other supplements. So far I'm going to keep doing what I'm doing and enjoy the process as much as I can. A Nutritionist is an option if needed I was told as well.

      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.
