Hey Everyone,

Down 60 pounds and more than 30 inches off my bod.

Woohoo!!!! I have a waist!!! Only 94 lbs more to go...... By Christmas, I will be halfway through my journey!!!! My goal is to lose at least another 17 pounds before Christmas. Might just fit in those little airline seats on my way to NY this year.....

I love my band!!!

Chris: I am going to Mahopac to stay with my sister, but I will be going to Manhattan for some shows and shopping

Alex: I never thought I would be able to lose so much in a short time. I am convinced it is the exercise and the copious amounts of Water. Also, food does not have the same significance to me it once did. I love food, but sometimes I don't think about it for hours. Today, my first meal other than my morning coffee was at 2:30 pm. I had some scrambled eggs with ham and cheese to get some Protein.< /p>

Bright: I am glad that you have reappeared! I was missing you!! Isn't your surgery at the end of this week? How are you doing?

WOW :D Your weight loss is amazing! I remember how it felt to lose that much weight (but that was before my band, back when I was taking those over the counter diet pills, and of course when I stopped taking them...I pretty much gained it all back!). It must feel good to lose that much weight the right way...with propper diet and excercise, knowing that you've made a positive life change. I can't wait to lose my weight again, but doing it right this time :cool: Congratulations! You really have inspired me.

      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.
