Recommended Posts

Today, for the first time in ...I don't know when. I shopped in the REGULAR ladies clothes section!!!! I tried on an XL top and it fit! I walked around and around, and thought to myself, WOW! I have missed shopping in the regular section where the cute clothes are, :smile2: Loved it!!!!!! Had to share with you guys, since I know most if not all of you can relate...or just wait you will!

WOW, that's great! I can't wait to be able to do that. I have a whole list of (what some would call silly) things that I cannot wait to do. Shopping for regular clothes is at the top of my list. I also want to be able to cross my legs and board a plane without feeling like people are staring at me thinking "Oh God, please don't let her sit beside me"! lol

I know exactly what you mean, about the plane and crossing your legs. Gosh, so many things that most people take for granted. Good luck to all of us!

Thanks for the well wishes :smile2:

      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.
