Recommended Posts

My surgery date was 09/09/08 So I am about 3.5 months out. I have lsot 27lbs since surgery. Lost 20lb prior to surgery. A total of 47 lbs in less than a year. I am very pleased with my weight loss. I could have never done this on my own and still kept it off.

Hi JMS, Thanks so much for the congratulations :)

I wrote this on another thread:

I do an hour of cardio, like jogging, walking on the treadmill(at a speed of 3.8 miles an hr or above) or i do 60 minutes on the elleptical machine with an incline of level 7 or above and 100 resistance. Then i lift weights, about 30 to 35 minutes. I drink a lot of Water as well. Let me know if you need anything else. hope you are all doing well :wink2:

FYI I go to the gym 5 to 6 days a week. About three times a week I do circuit training in the evening(squats, jumping jacks..etc).

I dont have a trainer. I watch youtube videos for fitness tips and subscribed to self and women's fitness magazine. Or I'll ask a sexy guy at the gym for help hehe.

I eat 3 meals with Snacks in between :w00t:

Thanks for the info! I get tired just reading about your exercise routine!! That's an area I am trying to improve on. I do my PT and ride my exercise bike, but need to increase time and days on the bike! You should be inspiration to lots of people!

I was banded on 10/13/08. I have lost 38 pounds to date. This has all been post-op. I was not required to be on a pre-op diet.

I love my band!!!

Thanks for the inspirational replies everyone!! I have my 5th/6th meeting on Jan 21st and then I'll be done with meetings/classes in February! If my insurance company (Highmark PPO Blue) approves the Bariatric Surgery Center at Magee Women's Hospital says the surgery is ususally scheduled the next month!

I ask because 3 months post-op will (HOPEFULLY) be around June/July and I'd love to maybe be down a size or 2!

Thanks again!! Good luck to everyone!!

      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.
