Milestone #1 just passed



Recommended Posts

Hi! So, this happened on the scale today - it still doesn’t feel real that this is happening.

Here are some before, during, and now pics. I look back and the old pics don’t feel like me. But neither do the new ones. It’s going to take a while to get my brain caught up.

The first pic is my highest weight, at 300lbs. The bottom two pics are from this week.

Yay!!! Congrats and welcome to Onederland!!! What a difference a hundred pounds make!!

But I will just tell you--I'm sure your confidence has grown as you've seen and felt success, but I see that same bright, shiny, puckish sense of humor and style/attitude both then and now!

Amazing and inspirational! You are beautiful!

Thank you! TBH - my personality hasn’t changed that much. I was an extrovert at 300 lbs, and still am. I was confident then, and still am. I am so much more comfortable in my skin now, though. All of the outdoor activities I love are easier. And though I was confident in who I was internally then, my self-esteem in regards to my appearance has improved tremendously, and hopefully will continue to.

      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.
