Work is over in 8 minutes. 5:01 will be the first minute of the rest of my life !!! Cannot wait until next Friday when its my turn to join the looser's bench !!

Hip Hip Hooray, I got my insurance Auth today!

Settling into the day to day sleeved life. It doesn't seem like work like it did in the beginning. I am sure it will again as I get close to goal and work to get those last few pounds off. Looking forward to seeing what I look like as I have never been a normal weight...lol

Tentative Surgery Date of 10/7/15!!

Its almost one month post op with no restriction and my eating habits are slowly starting to get worse. I'm glad tomorrow I go in for my first fill and hope the restriction starts helping with the amount of food I can eat. Staying positive!

NSV - bought new slacks today, AT COSTCO! Say goodbuy CasualMaleXL. Pictured on my profile are my pants from February

I finally got at time to show up for my surgery tomorrow. Super excited and super nervous!!! Will let you all know how it goes.

Well, i had my surgery August 27 and it was a success. Just really hungry so far, and can't wait to start stage 3.

looking for people with Diabeties

Scared about pre op diet. How can you feel full on a liquid protein shake? How did you get through two weeks of it??

Feeling motivated now that I have my date! I am in some sort of nesting mode. Really trying to square things away prior to surgery. No complaints here!

26 LBS in 20 days, I'm so excited

I have been so focused on my next goal of 50lb loss that I didn't realise at 49lb loss I am halfway to goal!!! whohoooooo

Does the exhaustion from stress mean I've burned more calories?

Going on a cruise in 3 days and for the first time in a LONG time am not anxious about being seen in a swimsuit!

3 Wks Post-Op Today! Down 16 pounds. A little slow since the first week, but I'm doing my best to be patient.

This past Monday I made 7 weeks post-op. Saw my doc and was told my daily portein intake should be 65 grams WITHOUT having to resort to shakes. WTW?!?! I am geting nowhere near that amount. Is anyone else having problems getting enough protein daily? Water? I was told at least 64 oz a day which is approximately 4 bottles of water - you would think that'snot a lot, but I can barely get 3 in a day. Please tell me I'm not alone in this.

I wish the Buyers Remorse would go away!!

I have a date with Doctor and Physic Eval.

I wish the Buyers Remorse would go away!!

I'm excited to start my journey, and really nervous too.

I've been on a one-week break from my fitness habits: Drinking wine with dinner, eating treat foods, logging haphazardly on MFP, and not keeping up with my exercise schedule. It's time to get back on track.

I am approved! Checked the mail this weekend to find that BCBS had approved me for surgery, and now I am just waiting for the call from my surgeon to set the date! Wooo Hooo!

Today is my 2 month surgeriversary. Down 40 pounds total!
