Let us know! I was married 42 years ago, and did not have a wedding dress. But, I would, also, be interested in knowing !

i know most brides are thin when they marry or their "best fighting weight", but for me I went in the opposite. I was my heaviest or pretty close to it when I married and my dress was the largest size i could get. After loosing 50 or so pounds I put the dress back on. it's "huge" on me now. I still think it is the prettiest thing I own and I'll probally never get rid of it. Of course my gown was not taken in or what have you I was lucky that i was able to find something "off the rack" for the big day.

I never had a wedding dress, got married at court house. I was 16 & hubby 18. That was 40 yrs ago in Nov. I think I should get a wedding dress when I reach goal and renew our vows and you all are invited. LOL

My husband and I never had a traditional wedding and we were married at the town clerks 13 years ago. We have decided to renew our vows next June. I'm so excited to pick out a dress, nothing over the top but more importantly, I won't have any fat pictures ;)

      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.
