I'm not a pre-bander, I'm about 9 weeks post op, but I do have a "bucket list" for when I'm at goal.

The little celebration I've already had was losing enough to fit comfortably in my Victorias Secrets. Funny as it may sound, I bought them a long time ago and never got to wear them, so I did a happy dance when I finally had the nerve to try them on and they were almost too big.

On to serious goals - when I hit 160 lbs I'm going to go skydiving. I'm going to buy a whole new wardrobe. I'm going to buy that "little black dress" and hit the town with my sister-in-law. I'm also going to do some sort of organized run - not a marathon by no means, but something smaller.

I figure mixing fun rewards in there, along with my serious ones, I'll stay motivated. So far so good.

- New clothes in the styles I like, NOT the crappy kind they carry in plus. Plus no more fat tax on the cute clothes you can find in plus!

- rock climbing!

- Not feeling like I don't deserve my man when we go out in public.

- Warrior Dash.

- Wearing a swimsuit (one piece, no need for skimpy here) without constantly worrying about what bulge might be showing.

- A sexy negligee for the bedroom ;)

- My reward for goal is to get my hair died a natural red color. I have always loved red hair, but never had the nerve to try it because if it turns out bad, then I'm left with bad hair and a chunky face (let's be honest folks, the color/cut can make or break a fat face).

      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.
