Took a progression picture today...



Recommended Posts

After much deliberating, I finally got the courage to have my husband take a picture today. I was motivated by another poster who posted a face picture. I wanted to see if I could see a difference in my body....I think I can! ;)

I am on day 39 after surgery.

Thanks! I was scared to compare pictures because I feel great and didn't want to be looking too soon. I think I look less "bloated", lol.

I know what mean about courage.

I didn't like my pic taken when I wasn't fat!

You can totally see a difference and you look great.

Lovely children, too!

The psychologist that is part of the lapband team told me to take a picture once a month. I recently took a 2nd pic and see a difference. I started a scrapbook to keep a record of my weight reduction. She also said to keep one "fat" outfit to help see how far you've come.

      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.
