Emmsie, reality check required.... 14kg is fantastic!!

I can understand that you want the weight just to drop off (don't we all?), but this a long term process and you are ahead of the pack already.

If you are truly unsatisfied with your weekly losses, reasses what you are doing and see if you can do anything better. That way you will feel more in control of your progress.

Dont be too hard on yourself!

Catch you later

Hello all, just checking in.

Weight loss has slowed despite slogging my guts out with the personal trainer, but thats to be expected. Especially because I can eat pretty normally now. I even had a whopper junior burger the other day :laugh: How naughty but delicious!

Looking forward to getting a fill, though still two weeks away... I definitely can't eat as much as before the op, but definintely need a fill! So paranoid about stretching my stomach, but it takes more each meal to be satisfied!

Hey All,

saw the Doctor today and had lost 2.5kg in the last 2 weeks, but I had him put in another 0.5ml!!

Hope you all had a great weekend!

Hi all

megsy - well done :mellow:

Shaggs - thanks for the pep talk. I am very proud of what I have done so far. Just disappointed that I was out of routine. I reckon I have only lost 1 kg in the last 3 weeks :tt2:

Have got back on my wii as of yesterday and am ramping things back up.

I have decided that my health is more important than my job :laugh:

Megsy girl, you're on fire! What an inspiration - I cant wait to be properly filled - does the fill make you want to exercise too? Or does that actually require me to exercise my (lack of) motivation? You must be stoked girl - way to go!

      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.
