Thanks you guys!! I am really emotional. I came to this site seeking help with lapband issues and I received so much more. I finally felt acceptance through each and every post. I mean everybody has some issue that they have to deal with. Some of us only have the weight issues but there are others of us that have so many other things that are hidden behind the weight issue. I realize that my weight was only the tip of the iceberg. Now I have tackled the next self acceptance. Guess what when I took those pictures that very day I met a great man! He told me I was and angel, lol. I mean I met the man I will probably marry! He and I have alot in common and he said that he already loves me cause it hit him hard. LOL This stuff only happens in the movies and only to Meg Ryan and Julia Roberts. He asked did I believe in love at first sight and I said No, his response while he was looking directly into my eyes was, well maybe because you don't see what I see because I see love when I look at you. He is so sweet! Man things are looking up.

I am from the south but he has this southern drawl and it is sexy!!!! He calls me sugah all the time and I used to think that stuff was sappy but when he says it I grin like a chessy cat! LOL I really think I love him! I have never felt this way before! Man!!!

Okay Paula I will. I have had my share of them believe me. This is so totally different but I have my guard up. You are so sweet for caring. I went to the grocery store today and got hit on again! I think because I have finally accepted myself I have a completely different attitude and evidently it is attracting men. Oh yeah and I had a woman hit on me the other day, that was weird but she was very nice. OH well thanks to you guys! Man ya'll rock!

Okay! My hair dresser is my best friend and I have hair extensions! I use a spray that keeps the wavy look and it has extra shine booster in it. My hair is short in the back and layered all over so we incorperated the wavy locks in. My hair color is brown like a medium brown. It is not dyed. When I was diagnosed with Lupus in 95 all of my hair fell out because of medicine. It grew back wavy and a medium to light brown go figure and it never changed.

      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.
