Recommended Posts

I am up to 47lbs lost so far! This includes the 17lbs lost on my pre-op diet. This tuesday is my 26th b'day and for the first time in years I cant wait for it or for future b'days. I am hoping to be at goal by my next one! I am already planning a birthday bash on a boat for next year! Sort of like a reintro to the world ; )

Happy Birthday!!!

Congrats on the great loss. I just hit 40 today:thumbup:

Have a great day!!!!

Ugh I've been stuck on the last 2 or 3 pounds for the past couple weeks. I've been working out a lot and eating pretty good, its so frustrating! I got my first fill today so I'm just on liquids right now, I'm starving!!!! I've lost 17 pounds since surgery, 27 all together. I'm dying to hit under 200 lbs for the first time since freshman year of highschool!! Congrats to everyone who has had so much success!

I got my first fill yesterday too. Luckily only had to do fluids yesterday. I found it much harder to go back to fluids this time than I did post op. Good luck in getting under the 200 lb mark. You'll get there!

Thanks! From doing all liquids yesterday I managed to loose a pound, so now I only have 2 pounds to go before I hit 199! Once the number on the scale doesn't start with a 2 I'm going to feel so much different, so much better! I know theres not much of a difference in how someone who is 201 and someone who is 199 look, but just knowing I broke through that plateau I will feel so good!

Allison you are doing amazing, you must be so proud! I think everyone on here has that magic number that if they can just get to will make them feel they are on the way. I know I do. I just want to see my scale get under 170 now. I want it to bad I am weighing myself everyday now.

Yvonne I couldn't be happier for you! 30 pounds lost never to be found again.

LOL My thoughts, exactly! We aren't losing it, nor are we looking for it.... we know where it's going and we don't want it back.

I prefer to say that I have now abandoned about 50lbs. hehehe

I kept clothing that no longer fit as I continued to grow. It is like meeting a long lost friend. Putting on those shorts that I could now fit into. I have a variety of shirts and shorts that I haven't worn in 2 years-now fitting comfortably. I can't wait to see 199lbs!

wow so many of you banded in May have lost a lot!!! congratulations - I only lost 2 lbs for the last month, but after a fill last week, finally started seeing the scale go down again, and lost 3 this week! Down 33 total since my two-week pre-op diet. It's slower than I had hoped but at least it's going the the right direction!!

      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.
