NOT the easy way out...



Recommended Posts

10 yrs post op..... seriously battling 32 lb regain after a 175 lb weight loss. My advice..... RNY should not be an option except for extreme cases of morbid obesity. It requires 100% commitment 24/7 365 days of the year. If you're not ready to love yourself...... any permanent weight loss program will not fill the void.

Easy was eating junk and staying fat. Not easy is eating junk, staying fat, having the worst stomachache of your life, and then spending several hours crapping your brains out while gagging your brains out over the stench. Yeah. I am the type of person who learns that way. No more corn nuggets. Ever.

Nope not an easy way out at all . Especially when most of us love food . We all have to redesign the way we eat and what we eat and how we eat and how and when to exercise. Just a big change in life and I love my changes

I agree, I haven't told people except close family and a few friends. I am at my weight I use to be and probably will loose more because that's just the way it's going. I have lot 92 lbs this definitely has not been easy, I just passed my one year on 1/25/17 I guess ignorance is a blessing to some. Keep up the great work everyone.

This no longer becomes a matter of question the longer you're out of surgery.

I'm about 10 months out, 130 pounds down. I weight lift for an hour 5 days a week along with 30 mins of cardio everyday.

Weeks out: 39

SW: 371

CW: 240

WL: 131lbs

      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.
