Laura's RNY Journey; Age 31 Starting Weight 365



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone! I always post the good and the bad. So I’ve been stalled for nine days. But I feel like it’s about to break. I’ve continued working out and have resisted some very tempting extra calories here and there. So, hopefully I will have a weight loss post soon. My hair isn’t as bad anymore and I’m taking my Vitamins regularly. I get in 3-5 16 ounce bottle of Water a day. Not as much as I should. Also, I’ve been able to eat slightly more and have found some foods to be slider foods that are even high in Protein. So, I’m trying to navigate this for long term weight loss. My goal is to be baby ready by June/July. 😊

So, I haven’t lost any additional weight this week. But my fingers are smaller and a few other places. I need to do some measurements. But here is a selfie because my face keeps looking thinner!

Nothing new to report. Still at 289. Feeling fine, working out. Taking it day by day. Legs are looking good. Gym clothes fit great. Winter coat feel much better now. My husband put on my old jacket and said he couldn’t believe how big it was.

285! My gym did my body composition and I have gained 12lbs of muscle! That is from just twice a week strength! Doing a hair conditioning mask for myself to relax.

Today is a great day! Thanks to working out, even though my weight is higher, I can fit these 13 dresses from when I was 265lbs. I’m still at 282 but I’m sizes down and have put on 12 lbs of muscle! Can’t wait for the next set of dresses! But I will be enjoying wearing these for now! #saveyourclothes

      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.
