My story thus far



Recommended Posts

Ive not posted in 8 days. Ive been so busy between family, work, and working out it just slipped my mind. Ive not weighed myself since the 16th and im going to stay on that mission until my next follow up oct 19th. But this morning as putting my pants on and walking over to get my belt the weight of my phone was pulling them off me. I put my belt on. Which less than a month had 4 holes left past where i normally wore it. Today i kept pulling trying to get to a hole only to realize the belt is to big for me. It feels so good to be at this point. When not weighing you question if you are losing but when the clothes get to falling off it really reassured you it was all worth it

Ive not posted in a while. Try to spare the boring details. Everything i still going great for me tolerating my food well. The past 2 weeks any pain that i may jave had from certain movements is gone so i have started lifting weights everyother day and cardio days in between.

10/19 i had another check up. 5w5days post op. I started at 391 and im down to 329. And my bodyfat % dropped from 54% to 42%. Doctors are moe than impressed and that makes me feel so good. I said my goal by the new years was to be in the 299 or lower and they said i should reach by first of dec. I sure hope they are right because thats been a huge goal. I go back for my 3 months check up 12/14 so hopefully i have achieved it

Been a month nd half since my last post or weigh in. I have a 3 month checkup coming this week the 14th so with all the stress ive had lately i weighed early expecting the worst. I could tell a difference in my body but didnt think the number would show well after 3 months of surgery and nearly 10years since ive seen this number i weighed in at exactly 300lbs today. So a total of 91lbs lost and i met my first goal of being at 300 by new years 3 weeks early.

      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.
