I've lost 83 pounds since surgery on 3/30/2017 and 117 since I started the process at the beginning of 2017!

I'm loving life again!

Well I feel like the slow poke of the bunch. Whenever I see other people's numbers, I wonder what I am doing wrong. But don't get me wrong, I am happy with the amount of weight I have lost. It is noticeable and people who haven't seen me in a while do a double take, which is nice.

Highest weight: 305 lbs.

Weight at first consultation; 294 lbs.

Weight on day of surgery: 270 lbs.

Current weight: 222 lbs.

If you count from my highest weight, its 83 lbs., but I like to count from the date of surgery, which is 48 lbs. My goal weight is just to be under 200 lbs.

What about you Ayanna?

Don't worry Desiree Newlove, the weight comes off at the rate that is best for your body's individual need. If you feel like your weight loss isn't where it should be, speak with your dietician/nutritionist..... they are the most qualified to guide you through this new way of life. Congrats and keep up the good work!

      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.
