OCTOBER SLEEVERS CHECK IN HERE



Recommended Posts

You look great! ...and those baby blues, too....Keep on going, you will break through the plateau. I know the frustration. I have also lost 60 lbs. Which is great, but I need to keep on losing. One thing that I find very motiviating is that my dress pants for work are all too loose, and I am fitting into smaller sizes that were stored in a closet. Also, my scrubs are way too loose, I need to shop for some more.
I was land-locked at 223-226 for a long time, now I am hovering at 201-202 forrevverrrrrr. But I am determined. I am 5'10" and my goal is 170. One day at a time. I am sporadic with exercise, I need more consistency in that area. Also, Water drinking. So let's make a deal, we both exercise 5-6 days a week, and drink a sh*t tom of water daily, and check back in here on March 1, and let's see if that scale might drop a little bit.

Oh yea , I'm more dedicated now than I ever have been. Idk if I can lose 20-25 lbs by March 1st but I'm gonna give it a shot . Id like to be hovering around 200 by st pattys day which is 5 weeks away. I joined Orange Theory which is a HI IT designed workout. I really need to be absolutely as strict as I can be with my diet. My problem is I'm a nighttime eater. I'm gonna try the Intermittent Fasting and keep my window when my body gets hungry. Thanks for the feedback. I am 5/8 and very stocky. I started lifting in high school. But a main reason why I got this surgery was because I don't want to look stocky anymore I wanna look lean and healthy for the rest of my life. The weights not shedding off like I thought it would so I need to change a couple things and get too my goals. Hopefully I'll check back and be much happier with my progression.

The top is now I'm at 218 and the bottom is before when I was at 261. Currently, I'm playing around with makeup hence the red glossy eyeshadow suits my mood. The 'old Hannah' aka. non-depressed Hannah will return, it's just taking some medication sorting out. Bump in the road.

OK I KNOW about stalls but Im SOOOOOOO over it! Have literally been bouncing between 226 and 229 for two damn weeks! I am quickly reminded why people throw in the towel while "dieting" cause the scale can get in your head! But I have to mention my clothes are falling off but damn it that scale!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(e hug) The scale does not define you unless you allow it to. Keep trucking, I'm going uphill with my anti-depressant absorption and just getting out of bed, if I can do this so can you dear. It's a bump, that is ironing itself out, so will this stall...

Yup. I stay away from the scale. It will seriously mess with my head. I'm 3 months 3 weeks post-op and can squeeze into a size 6/7. I keep telling myself I'll weigh at 6 months but who knows I may do it sooner.

61 lbs makes a BIG difference. Pink dress pic was taken in September and the other was taken Saturday. I feel like a completely different person.

What are some of your favorite meals/snacks?

      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.
