I'm 5 ft 9 in and weighed 373 at my first doctors appointment and 354 lbs. on surgery day (had the sleeve) last June 30th. I now weight 228 lbs My initial goal was 220 lbs.

Am happy with size. I'm now wearing size 16 shirts (down from 24) and size 18 pants (down from a tight 26). Waist is front and center. I was surprised to see it when it first appeared, but have a quality hourglass shape now.

Also skin seems to have bounced back quite well even though I'm 50 years old. I think being tall has been helpful.

I am still losing, albiet a lot slower, and will give it another six months for my body to decide where it wants to stay.

I love these posts! This is totally what I have been researching and looking into. I do not even know what it would be like to be close to 200 lbs. I have been a big girl since 8th grade. I am so excited to join the losers bench on December 7th!!! I am ready to see the results of the hard work I am putting in. You ladies are such an inspiration to me!

      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.
