Last summer my "moment" happened ...I went to go on roller coaster and I didn't fit! So embarrassed and did the walk of shame, had to be the worst moment ever, so here I am 5 sizes smaller and in size large and going to hersheypark this weekend, I'm excited and nervous! Thank god I'm sleeved with all that chocolate too! LOL Sent from my iPhone using VST -
Maybe I'm alone in this but after a big change my clothes are hanging on me and when I wear them they make me feel fatter? When I started this journey I was a 24 well yesterday I was a size large ! I had so much fun in regular ladies section, and there was a huge sale! I got 8 tops and two shorts for $50 so I don't feel bad lol! Isis start in women's section and realized too big Sent from my iPhone using VST

It's not a bad thing! I slowly added my shakes to a replace my Breakfast then a week before just had 2 shakes and dinner, so when pure liquids came I was okay with it and not starving, helped me lose 32lbs prior and had a completely uncomplicated surgery ! Sent from my iPhone using VST

Did you cheat on your pre-op liquid diet?
michelle4873 replied to Vinsanity's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had to do 3wks liquid, make sure your shakes include at least 20-25g of protein a lot don't, this helps to keep you full, I also would add ice and put in blender for more of a shake, plus I bought all kinds of tea to change it up, it's worth it, my surgery went extremely well and I feel awesome and my surgery was Friday ! -
I was shocked the day after surgery the scale said I put on 9lbs! I'm post op 3 days and have lost 7 of that but man did that bum me out!

I like the premix isopure (3days post op) but I find me watering them down a little bit

Yep it happened, I went shopping for the first time since on the liquid diet, about a week and lost it on my boyfriend. I have considered my self conquering this diet and loving the quick weight loss during it but while shopping and trying to buy food to make sure he eats I lost it! I was past due for my shake and starting to feeling hunger for the first time. I had to leave and go cry in the car. I thought it ended there but no. After I cooked him dinner I had another before bed, this because I Ended up missing one of my shakes and was hungry for the first time going to bed. I was so upset at him for eating! I feel better today but I felt week for the first time, am I alone here?

Did anyone enjoy the 2 week pre-op diet as much as me? Really not bad....

meltdown at the grocery store!
michelle4873 replied to michelle4873's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thank you tj all for the kind words, I feel better and have excepted that I have to be more vocal and tell people when I can't do cooking shopping etc, my BF has been so good and he feels so bad , I was definitely acting invincible until the meltdown, the reality is that I am going thru a lot of changes and its okay to say no I need to step away from things I don't feel strong enough to do, especially where I have always seen myself as The Cook, he can cook like in his bachelor days lol ! -

michelle4873 replied to Girl on the Blvd's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have been on for 6 days and have yet to feel hungry too. I have also lost close to 8lbs now so watching it melt off definitely helps! -
I am right there with you, I have found inspiration when weighing myself, I'm down 8lbs since Tuesday so that definitely helps!
