Thank you, but no, I have not had any skin removed yet. I will though...I have a very large, hanging apron.

I will look into getting plastic surgery early next year. I still want to lose at least 20 more pounds.

Good for you for reaching your goal weight!! I can't wait to have that feeling...I still haven't decided what I want my goal weight to be...originally it was 180lbs, but now that I weigh under that, I think I want to get to 160lbs.

So crazy to even get this far!!

We should all be so proud of ourselves!!

I know this sounds cliche, but it's true...if I can do it, you can too. The last time I weighed in the 100's was when I was around 17, and I'm 40 now! I honestly never believed my body was even capable of weighing this again!

I can't wait for your post when you get here too!!

Ivejust got my surgery date, sept 7th and im so excited. I was always 145lbs because i was a flight attendant for 18yrs. Once i had back surgery, and they started with rhe steriods, i ballooned up to 288lbs and couldnt get it off alone. My goal weight isnt to be that small again, but i would like to be in a 8-10 again. Currently i weigh 288lbs.

      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.
