A Tiny Step...



Recommended Posts

Hi All -

I have been so inspired by the various personal websites I have been to, and have always vowed to give back by doing the same.

However... :rolleyes: Miss Procrastination that I am, I have never gotten around to it (nearly a year later!!).

But, FINALLY, I at least put up some pictures. No after pictures, yet, but some before pictures. lol

So hopefully the site will grow into something useful and inspiring, but for now at least I've made a small start. Baby steps, baby steps... I don't have to be perfect... lol :sick

I will work on it more, although probably not until late January. For now, inquiring minds will just have to wonder about what I look like now, -70 pounds. lol :cool:

Ditto what everyone else said! I think it is the pictures that keep everyone motivated and excited. I know they do me and my husband! By the way, you were perhaps one of the CUTEST babies I have ever laid eyes on!

Uh, maybe after I grew some hair... lol

Thanks, everyone for your wonderful comments and support. I will try and add more substance to the site sooner than later. :cool:

And I agree that pictures speak a thousand words! Or is that, "take up a thousand bytes"? lol So I challenge the rest of you to get with the program as well! Post those pics!! We'll bring the internet down yet! lol

:rolleyes:

      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.
