HW: 330

SW: 275

Cw: 215

Lost almost 20 inches from my waist! I am so excited to share that on my 100th day since surgery, I am almost in One-derland! To celebrate..and for a much needed stress reliever, my family and I have a 5 week long cross country camping and hiking trip planned in 17 days!! I'm so excited that I get to participate! I had honestly thought that I would never bee able to be this active again. But I'm running....yes running...a mile and half everyday, going strength training 30 minutes a day, and swimming laps for an hour. I feel amazing. The effects of my osteoarthritis have almost completely gone away! The amount if energy I have now is incredible. I feel like I'm living in a dream...but please, nobody pinch me [emoji4]

I am so happy I found your post. We all try to find out future self on these forums just so we know there is hope and we can anticipate real change. Our weights for high and surgery are almost exact (even though I still have a week and a half before I actually can say that lol) so I can only hope that my cw at 100 days out is similar.

I am having surgery on May 26th. My HW was 328 and my current presurgery weight is 280. In praying to get down another few pounds before surgery next Friday.

Thanks for posting !!!

I'm happy that my post could give you some encouragement. Our stats are very close and I do hope that you have the same amazing feeling and results that I am having. It is like night and day for me. I went from a depressed, exhausted, unmotivated person yo an energized, excited, self co rodent woman in four short months...and those feelings grow stronger everyday. My cravings have started coming back but I must say that no food ever made me feel as good as I do now. I wish you the best of luck!!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
