Recommended Posts

Soooooooo I am down to 217 today. Thats 40 lbs since April. Not bad for not making a huge effort. So now that I have been trying, I have lost 5 lbs in 15 days! Sooooo thats encouragement. My brother and my sister in law and my 2 nephews, Nickolas, 2 ½, Austin, 5, and my niece Kayla, 9 next week will be here tomorrow!!!! I was 257 the last time I saw them. So I am kinda excited about that. My niece and i share october 19th as our birthday, with her father, (my brother) following on the 20th. So on the 19th we are having a big barbeque. I miss them all so much, and I am looking forward to spending the week with them all. Have a great weekend, ya'll. I know I will. :)

Holy Moly - you've lost more in a few months than I have in over a year. Good job

I share a birthday with my only niece (I wish my brothers would hurry up and have some kids) isn't it fun? I love spending time with my family, too. I think we are very lucky. Have a great time and enjoy every minute of it.

Hi Robyn,

Bet you cannot take the smile off your face, that is wonderful.

They put 7cc in for the first fill.....amazing.

My Dr put in 4cc first fill and it took another 1cc fill for the next 3 months to have restriction. I am starting to loose weight now for the first time in over 3 months, and in one week have lost 6 Ibs.

Enjoy the time with your family.

      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.
