SCALE Victories!



Recommended Posts

I absolutely love all the Non-Scale Victory threads around but I'd like to have a scale victory one too - where we can Celebrate the milestone goals that we reach along the way. I'll start! :thumbup: (you knew that was coming, didn't you?)

This morning the scales showed me the magic number 99.9kg! That's the first time I've been under 100kg in I honestly don't know how long, but it must be at least 10 years. I have no idea when I went over 100kg, coz I stopped getting on scales somewhere around 80kg in about 1993 and was shocked to my core when I finally stood on one in 2003 and discovered I was about 110kg. I yo-yo dieted my way from there up to 122kg, and once managed to get down to 102kg for a single magical day, but it all crept back on and I started this journey at my highest ever of 125kg. I VOW I will NEVER be over 100kg AGAIN!!

I consider today my greatest scale victory ever!!!

I broke the 150 barrier. I know I am still overweight but I haven't seen a 4 after that 1 since a year after high school! 4 is the most beautiful number I have ever seen!!!!

      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.
