Thanks. Now comes the hard part...keeping it off. So easy to fall back into bad habits. Now and then, I have to start actively tracking so I don't backslide. Lucky for me, a lot of what I love, my stomach can no longer handle. Yay?

Hi I have been in this site for awhile now but I had some problems with my Lap Top so I lost a lot of my stuff. I had my RNY July 2, 2013 my highest weight at this time was 249#'s ( I had weighed 285 #'s before but managed to lose 36#'s and kept it off) my Surgery weight was 232 after my Preop diet of Protein drinks for 2 weeks my Current weight is 125#'s. I went below my goal weight at first due to Strictures. But I eventually managed to gain back 8#'s. The only gain I have had!! Which I am real excited about. Any way I would love to chat with you, and If you are interested I can give you my email and we could connect that way. I'm not being strange I'm not weird but I do love to talk about WLS'S this is something I am real Passionate about. So if you want just look me up.

Oh yes BTW you have done excellant with your weight loss. And you are right it is a scary thing when we get to maintance. I have a little more freedom with what I eat and I don't always make the best choices either. LOL But we are human and humans make mistakes Right. The difference now is I don't just throw up my arms and say OH WELL, I pick myself up and KEEP ON KEEPING ON!!

      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.
