First NSV in a LONG TIME!



Recommended Posts

It's been a long time since I have lost anything that really made me go "hmmmmm, hot"--ha ha.

I have a diamond on a necklace that my husband gave to me for a wedding present. I literally wear this necklace 24/7 and have for the last 8 years.....

except to have it cleaned, of course...must maintain the only bling I have!

Anyway--I have been thinking lately that something is wrong with the chain--and was actually close to taking it to the jewelers, when it occured to me--it hasn't stretched out like I thought, hence, diamond dangling between my boobs where no one can see it, as opposed to up higher where it used to be--it's longer because my neck isn't as FAT!!!!

a lightbulb moment if there ever was one.

Now back to your regularly scheduled programming....:)

Carol, that would be a "Non scale Victory" Anything from sneezing and your pants fall off to crossing your legs for the first time in a loooooong time. And anything else you can name. Make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. And makes anyone within shouting distance jealous.

Kimber, I recently had a similar experience! I used to get so frustrated at not being able to find chains long enough to hang at a "normal" length on me. The other day I put on my necklace for the first time since I started this journey and the small medallion that hangs on it was so low it startled me. Great feeling isn't it?!

      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.
