Oh my goodness, you look fantastic and I saw the weight you started out at. Can I be just like you when I have surgery? 71 pounds in 3 months is INSANE! I'm so so so so jealous! Do you have some magical secret that you can share or are you just one lucky duck?

Congratulations!

I'm getting sleeved on 12/19, and I am just a few pounds over your starting weight. I sure hope I lose 70 lbs. in 3 months to. You go girl!!

She can be our role model

Thanks so much, everyone. The highest weight I've ever been was 336 - Right before delivering my youngest child who is now almost 2 years old. When I decided to get surgery I was 288. 262 on Surgery date.

Tips... Follow Dr's orders exactly, stay focused. I've cheated twice in three months and they were small cheats. I kicked myself in the butt for a minute and then got right back on plan.

Tons of Water - 80-100 ounces per day. Tons of Protein. No cream Soups, no mashed potatoes, no Jello - PROTEIN, PROTEIN!

I really didn't exercise much (except chasing around a 1 year old and a 2 year old all day) but just joined a rigorous workout program last week (Crossfit) and I'm seeing great results already from that.

That's it, I guess. Just stay focused, keep your eye on the ball and Good luck to those who haven't been sleeved yet - This is going to change your life if you work it!!

When u say protein what type of protein?

I just typed a huge response and my 2-year old rolled onto the laptop in his sleep and deleted it. So this is going to be a summary. Right now I am supposed to get 70 grams Protein but no more than 600 calories. Types of protein....

Premier Nutrition Ready-Made Protein shakes (Costco) - 30 Grams Protein, 160 calories

eggs (1 would be a meal) 7 grams protein, 80 cals

Reduced-Fat Peanut Butter (2 tbsp's) 9 grams protein, 160 cals

Kirkland (Costco) Frozen Turkey Patties - 35 grams protein, 200 cals

Foster Farms Turkey Homestyle Meatballs (costco) - 20 grams protein, 160 cals

chicken Breast - Can't remember calorie count

Greek Yogurt

Steak

Ground Turkey

Shrimp

Other Fish - Swordfish, Tilapia, Tuna (though watch the mercury content)

Stuff like that.

You look great! Congrats!
