I am at about the same spot as you. My problem right now is some major stress in my life. I am hoping when things calm down a bit that I will start losing again. But I did kick up the workouts for a bit, well STARTED working out. Good luck at your workout plans too!

Thanks guys. I can't wait until I get to the 100lb mark loss. My tentative goal is by Thanksgiving.

Regardless, even if I don't - I FEEL so much better and I still have over 100lbs to lose.

It saddens me to think how many years I've wasted. My only regrets were waiting so long to get the band.

Have a great weekend!

So, here are a few.

August 2008 - Right before I decided that I wanted to pursue surgery. (In Central Park.) I saw these pictures and it just confirmed everything - I looked terrible and felt terrible. I could barely make it through the day in NYC doing tourist stuff.

February 2009 - A week before surgery - 10lbs down on Pre-op diet. (At Franklin Institute.)

5/09 - 3 months post-op and 34lbs lost! (At my Uncle's wedding.) Notice - NO STOMACH ROLE! Highlight of my life!

6/09 - 4 months post-op and 37lbs lost! (In Chicago.) Now, when doing tourist stuff, I feel great. I can keep going. I'm not tired and my feet don't hurt. Unlike the first photo, I felt wonderful.

Hi everyone! I'm 2 weeks post-op, and I wanted to share a few of my before/during pics.

The 1st one is from about a month before surgery; the 2nd one is 1 week post-op.

boy oh boy, I cant believe my behind is about to post this face pic. I tell you I cried as I uploaded this pic. Well the first face pic was me in the summer of 2008, i took it as a before pic to remind me at how I eat my soul away(I used to be slim, however, life stressors led me to the wonderful world of the wizard of food) at 290 pounds and a pic I took a few weeks ago at 175 pounds. Is a drastic drastic change. I also added a few other pics I took from may 2009 until June 2009 as slimmed my way down to the mid 170s :thumbdown: One thing I miss about my pre surgery days is my dominican/puerto rican food, howeevr as good as it is Latin cuisine requires a lot of rice eating, I cant eat rice to save my life! it gets stuck, so I dont eat it!

loveislovely, you look freaking amazing! love your sense of style, too.

k, i just posted this pic in the main pics thread, but figured i should add it here too since people my age would probably be more interested. there are more pics i just added in a private album on my profile (add me as a friend if you want to see them)

hate this before pic, but its a good reminder of where i came from and why i am NEVER going back! this current pic i took tonight after a workout.

      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.
