I'm down 65 pounds since surgery



Recommended Posts

Just had my second weigh-in since surgery on 4/12/17 and I'm at 304 and I was 369 on day of surgery! It's been a journey but I'm looking forward to being under 300 pounds again

Congratulations! Keep up the great work. I remember getting below 300 pounds right before my surgery. (I weighed 298 on surgery day, and I weighed 397 at the start of my six month pre-op diet program.) I was so excited about it. The only thing more awesome than that was when I got below 200 pounds a few weeks ago!

As much as I like my practice's NUT, I discounted her advice a long time ago. If I had followed their advice, I wouldn't have lost anything pre-op, and she would have had me hopped up on carbs during the food stages. They have never known what to do with me because I am such an outlier in their practice, so they mostly just leave me alone.

Anyhow, have a great day, and keep going!

      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.
