I'm glad i saw this - i knew i would go from wide width to regular - but i am shocked to have gone from 8 to 7 1/2. i am really surprised i lost length - was not expecting it!

My shoe size also went from 9 to 8. I have become a shoe aholic! I am able to wear cute and sexy heels now. Before i would have them on for 5 minutes and be ready to take them off. Now i can wear them with no problems. I started out wearing an inch heel and then working my way up. Now I'm in 4 inch heels and starting to wear the platforms.

I went from a 10 to a 9. I can even wear tall boots now!! It's so exciting, but I have to say it was hard to go down a shoe size. I wasn't expecting that at all, and I had some really cute shoes I could never wear, luckily my sister is a 10 so I know they won't go to waste, but it's something to keep in mind.

Shrinkage, oh No, I'm a man! Not that too!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
