im finally under 200 and sitting at 190. this last fill i got 2 months ago seems to be holding good for me. sometimes i think its a touch to tight, but im working it. i still have a hard time believing that i have lost this much weight. Im still waiting for my brain to catch up with how i look.

AWESOME! Haven't made it yet but I will! I saw my doctor on Tuesday and we decided no fill this time. I have lost 50 lbs since my surgery date and he is happy with that. I am ok with it but I was hoping for more by now.

Those of you in Onederland are an inspiration for me!!!!

I hear you on the brain catching up! I still have to double take when I see myself walk by in a window or when I am looking at pictures, I think, "who is that lady?" I was in shopping the other day and I get self-conscious thinking that the sales people are wondering why I am looking in the "normal" people section. I wish my brain would catch up - of course I felt pretty hot in the size Large dress I bought! LOL!:sad:

i was the same thing when i went in to macy's to shop. was wondering around the normal size dept. Kept looking around expecting to be given some strange looks by people. I was able to zip up into a size 12 calvin stretch jean. granted will need to loose another 5 before comfortably fit and will walk out the door in them, but it felt great. I have gone from a 28 pant to a 12-14 now. I also now tend to buy clothes a bit tight vs before buying them a bit to big. i'm hoping it doesnt take to long to adjust to the new me and for my self confidence to go up.

Under 200 is great but the fact that I went from 3X to a medium shirt is totally amazing.

      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.
