6 months pics of the Junies (June 07 Bandsters)



Recommended Posts

Thanks guys! To the next 50#!! Bigbaby, I'm still frustrated about my restriction, but at least I have some. Not what I want, but I don't want the overfill either. Today was my fill day (semi locally) but I'm skipping it. I get some restriction with dry meats, like the smoked salmon I tried yesterday.

I can see a difference too in my pics but my body still feels big and chubby. I think it's from stalling so long. When I lose 10# I feel thinner immediately and sooooo good!

Bigbaby, I put my photos in photobucket.com and resized them to the message board size. I don't know if that's what makes them come out they way they did or not. They were just regular pics taken with my Kodak digital.

Good point! Your arms rest on your sides now. Also, your body 'lumps' change shape as you lose as they re-distribute and eliminate. I know mine have.

The best thing is Suzzie, you are in proportion and losing weight evenly all over which probably means no PS. The end result is going to be amazing if 382 to 305 is 6 months is anything to go by.

Here are my 6 month pics. I should have stuck with taking the picture in the kitchen as usual. In this picture I look as big as our Christmas tree.

      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.
