You look fantastic
I had my surgery the same day that you on December 5, 2016 in Carolina, Puerto Rico. I started with 196lbs and three months later my weight is 156lbs. My weight is stuck.

Well, sounds like you have lost 40 lbs. that is great Keep up the good work. We all get stalls. I have had several stalls thus far just kept pushing through and you should do the same. My doctor told me my weight would come off slower due to I started off at a lower weight ( 219 lbs) but I think it's coming off pretty good and I'm not experiencing loose skin thank God so I'm ok with the rate of my loss . Congrats on your loss as well. 40 lbs is a great accomplishment.

Hi 10stackzz, long time no hear, thank you for saying I'm an inspiration. I feel I am doing okay but I am glad I am able to be a motivator for others, that's great. And soon as I am able to put on a bikini , because I am gonna wear one this summer, I will snap a pic or two or three, lol. Good luck on your procedure. I will def send prayers up for you . Because at the end of the day it's all in his hands. He has truly kept me thru this process.

I'm sure you look great as well. Don't worry about the loose skin. You are healthier and smaller. I'm sure you feel better with 40 lbs gone . Enjoy life and keep working that sleeve. I'm 39 yrs old so the skin elasticity is a little different due to age but if I were 68 and lost 40 lbs , they had better watch out because I wud be one hot 68 year old and I bet you are as well . Take care and keep working mami.

Lol, I didn't eat the pb & j but I'm sure I replaced it with something else, lol. But only once or twice. I'm nowhere near perfect. But thank you so much. I have really been working hard at this.

      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.
