This is going to sound really weird, but I want to wear riding breeches again. I've ridden horses since I was a little girl, and have a barn full of them, but in the past 10 years I've spent most of my time on the ground as a horse show mom, groom, truck driver, etc.... All the horses think they are retired since my daughter left for college! I also want to wear a wetsuit so I can take scuba diving lessons. My daughter is a certified diver and I told her that I didn't want to get certified because I was afraid of sharks, But I was actually much more afraid of wearing a wetsuit. As for street clothes, I'm a Plain Jane --- L.L. Bean, Lands End, Talbots. I'd like to buy clothes without a 'W' in the size. Actually...I am afraid of sharks, I just can't stop the Jaws music in my head when I get in the Water. But I'm going to do it anyways.

Man, after reading this I need to up my game! You have AWESOME goals. I look forward to you posting the pictures of you riding and in a wetsuit.

I just want to run a marathon in an exotic place, like the Himalayas.

BandingMi - You know, just having my picture taken will be a major milestone. I've got nearly 1300 photos on my laptops and I'm in 3 of them. :D

Boy can I ever relate to that! I need to go ask my mom for my before pictures because I don't have any. She took one of me and my hubby 2 weeks before I started preop so I know it's gross!

Just a nice pair of jeans and that's the one thing I have never worn. I was always too fat for it. I wear skirts and my husband says I look like and old school teacher. How sad is that :(

I ride a Harley, so I'd like a pair of leather chaps to wear over my tight jeans and a tight leather vest. I be one sexy grandma!

Everyone will be saying "damn, did you see that old lady". She looked hot! LOL

In my wildest dreams!

      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.
