9 pounds in a week!!



Recommended Posts

I scheduled my initial consult a week ago with Dr Trace Curry in Cincinnati, Ohio. The lady that I talked to mentioned that the doc may want me to lose some weight before surgery since my bmi is above 50.

So I decided to do my calorie counting diet and.... Have lost 9 pounds in the first week!! Now I'm at 360lb now with a bmi of 51.6. I'm hoping to schedule my surgery in mid May and be around 330-340 at the time of surgery!

Thanks for the support everyone!

Fabric I actually just bought some Protein powder the other day. I thought for sure it would take me a while to find one I liked, but I love the kind that I bought! (It's cheap too! Lol) Probably because 90% of what I have drank for the last two years has been Water, so anything with taste is delicious to me! Lol

Thanks again!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
