So are we talking naked in front of the mirror? If so I would say my face. if we are talking about with clothes on, it would be a toss up between my butt and my waist. haha

I am loving the hourglass shape again, but am inpressed that I have lost so much of my butt!!

Again this is with the clothes on. off, I can tell I am 45 years old!!!lol

I did post what I love about my body, but I have another one. I LOVE my face. My double chin is turning into a single chin. and I am getting cheek bone again.

LOL! this is a joyful thread!

I enjoy the times when I look in the mirror or see a fresh picture of myself and feel a jolt of reality in the knowledge that I look like a human being with curves, a chin, still a stomach, but one that is not bigger than the girls, and then there are my thighs that now allow my legs to be closer together when standing, ankles that look like ankles and feet that don't hold the Water the way they used too! sigh .... ain't life grand?

      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.
