I’m now OBESE CLASS 2 at 261 pounds!



Recommended Posts

In spite of my goal being 250 pounds (soon to be 200 after I reach 250) I’m thrilled to have dropped out of the Obese class 3 category. Normal weight is not to far off now!

I was not sure what that meant so I used a search engine.

It seems that 40 and over is "OBESE CLASS 3".

Well, guess what, my BMI fell under 40 just last Saturday, six days after my 62nd birthday.

Once I dropped under 124.7 kg (275 pounds), I had made it.

At 124.6 kg, I was 50 kg (110.2 pounds) under my weight/mass on the day I met my surgeon 48 weeks ago on Monday July 17th, 2017.

I'm batting for better than 1.000 by reaching more than 52kg lost by July 16 (52kg in 52 weeks).

Cheers to you and your achievement. Your post prompted me to look it up and find out that we both transferred an obesity category at about the same time. (I remember when my BMI was 61+ and when I did not expect to make my 60th birthday!)

I went for my exercise assessment today (friday 22nd June) at noon and weighed in at 122.9kg (270.9 pounds).

It's been a good couple of weeks for my shrinkage!

Wohoo! Looking good. Who thought we would Celebrate being merely obese? I just got to ‘overweight’ myself and was psyched. 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.
