Thanks everyone! My goal weight is 130 or 135! So I'm close! I can almost take it I heard it wa harder after the first year so I'm trying hard while I'm under the first year! I'm low carb dieting which helps the weight come off faster I believe and even before surgery, when I could stick to a diet it always came off fast! Im still young so I guess that helps a lot! I stay buzy with work and being a mom so I'm always on the move! I work out at home which is good for my schedule! Either treadmill or a cardio tape( turbo fire, turbo jam, or p90x) and now I'm toneing with weights! I am very proud but some days i feel like I look the same in the mirror but physically I feel like a million bucks!! I guess it takes time to adjust to the mirror!

      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.
