Hey Nymphs! Just thought I would step in here and check in. It has been a LONG time! I am down a total of about 115 pounds. My weight loss has been stubborn. I know that i need to increse my activity and my lazy arse just won't do it! I will be increasing my activity soon. I just rebuilt my old college bike and will use it to do some training.

Gotta hit the hay now. I promise I will try to check in more often.

Wow!! What an accomplishment!! Glad to see you posting. I know what you mean about needing to exercise more. I think the closer you get to goal the harder it gets to lose weight. I had a fill in Dec and that has been the one that has really helped me to drop the last bit of weight. It's a little tight, but at this point I don't care.

Hey TX, glad to hear from you!!!

Congratulations 115 down is a major accomplishment!!! I am stuck at 175 now for forever it seems. I can't lose anything, at least I'm not gaining I say. Now that I have recovered from my revision surgery I can step up my exercise and try and lose some more.

Again congrats on 115 lost!!!!:confused:

Thanks for the Kudos... I have lost a considerable amount of weight and I keep having to remind myself about that. My restriction is good now, maybe just a hair lose, but i would not DARE get a fill right now. I do NOT want to start that downward spiral of being overfilled. I just need to get to exercising and I know I will lose the 30 pounds left to get to my goal. FOCUS!

What revision did you get?

What revision did you get?

Hi,

I had my extended Anchor cut Tummy Tuck last Oct, and had a really bad wound sepration from the belly button down to the top of my cookie, and over to my right hip, turned into a great big open thing, not a [pretty sight, had to be packed 2 times a day with guaze and saline and cream. it took 4 months to close up. I was left with a ugly butt like scar on my tummy from the way it heal;ed. so I had my revision done May 5th to correct this. He basically did another tummy tuck, this time from the belly button only down. also did a breast lift while I was under.

So one month out and I feel so much better, I just need to get my azz into the gym. No more excuses!!!

You have done an amazing job with your weight loss!!!!

WOW! Bless you heart. Glad things are going well for you now. What a long and ?painful? process of healing.

I pulled my bike out yesterday evening. I was all jazzed up about getting on it and knockin' out a few miles and low-and-behold, the tires were low on air!!! ARRRRGGGGG! Gotta get a pump before I get home tonight.

      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.
