6 months this week



Recommended Posts

I can't believe 6 months has come and gone already. It has been the most amazing journey, one I could not have foreseen would have been not only this east, but, dare I say-enjoyable??

I'm 35 lbs from goal- so I expect things to start slowing down soon. But I'm in it for the long haul!

So far, I've lost 106 ish pounds from my HW- at 282 96 lbs from my SW at surgery. Looking forward to seeing my surgeon this week!!! Who knew getting on a scale could be exciting??

For those of you just beginning- it works. It truly does. Making the commitment to do this is truly the biggest gift you can bestow upon yourself. The payoffs are immeasurable. post-284996-14742403378193_thumb.jpg post-284996-14742403565137_thumb.jpg post-284996-14742403766564_thumb.jpg post-284996-14742403944784_thumb.jpg

Thanks! I'm really happy with my results to date. Now, I have to go grow a butt again! (Through weight training, not Pasta carbonara!!!)

      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.
