Recommended Posts

Were all on a roll here....the 24th is getting closer....I am so excited. I tell you the last few days I've really been a BIT** but today I am finally feeling good. I have some energy, and did a lot of spring cleaning on my apartment. I wonder how many calories I have burned today...I am down a total of 16 pounds with 10 days to go!! I can't wait to see 299 on the scale...I will have to do a dance. Going to take my pics tonight...I have one posted on my profile but it was from XMAS of 08 and I've gained since then. So not quite accurate....Gonna really get some good ones...front, back and side views. Up close and full body ugh!!!

I think my body is done with the withdrawing and I'm feeling human again.

Yesterday I slept 18 hours....I was an emotional wreck. Funny how I can feel the exact opposite today... oh well, maybe my body is getting used to this....

HUGS TO ALL.... Hope you are all well...

Meg

Hi, that is my day too. My sister and are both scheduled for March 24th. 10 day pr-op diet today. Sounds like between some of your, 3 Protein Shakes and up to 2 cups of cottage shees, yogurt, applesauce, etc. Nervous!

Hi everyone! I'm scheduled for surgery on March 24th as well. My doctor doesn't require I do a liquid diet pre-surgery but I've decided I want to do it the week before just to prepare.

10 more days.... :thumbup:

On day 6, and still no cheating. I am down 10lbs since starting and that is pretty amazing. I really had to stop to think what Darkangel was saying in only 8 days we will have the worst of this behind us. ONLY 8 DAYS! I know I am getting excited and nervous about it.

Today so far has been pretty challenging and I have had to really focus to stay on track. Hubby went shopping for the groceries last night and what he bought would make a bachelor pad look healthy. Mostly snacky type foods! Unbelieveable. Oh well, I am determined to stay on track and not cheat, not even once.

Hope you all are doing well....R

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
