Not a shame of my body!!!!!!!!!!!!



Recommended Posts

I am so proud to be a big and beautiful young lady, however not enough to let my health fail me. I am not ashamed of all my beautiful curves or the way my fat looks as I move, for I am only ashamed of the way my health is slowly but surely failing me. To have no health means no me for Sean or no me for life and what I have worked hard on. As far as being afraid to show my self and leave the house I have never had that, I love to shop, and I love to dress nice. However can't wait to shop at New York & Company...yay!!!

Good attitude! I never had that attitude when I am heavy I get more depressed and close myself off from people. Now that I have dropped 80lbs. I am just starting to come out of the shell I have been hiding away in.

You've got a great attitude. The ability to love and accept yourself no matter what will take you very, very far.

You are very happy to share. I like you. I'm not over you. I thought I was ugly and bigger than you.

I hear ya!!! That's always been me. You can't let being "fat" define who you are or how you carry yourself. Big or small beautiful inside and out always!!

Best,

Lauren

      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.
