Yesterday i had to go photo a wedding. I figured i had NO dress clothes that now fit me, So yesterday morning i went shopping. I know i must have made the store mad cause well i tried on about everything in the store. I ended up buying a pair of stretchy pants that was a size 18 and a shirt that was a size 14/16 I was excited by that but even more excited by the fact that i tried on some shirts form the NORMAL side of the store...Yea not the plussize side. I found shirts that was xlarge there taht FIT ME!!! I know this sounds silly but no one knows how happy i felt thinking that i could buy stuff from that side if i choose... Next week i am going back and buying those 2 shirts just for ME! I posted a new after pic and going to attach it to this email as well. I for the first time in a picture saw the actual weight loss. On my way GO TURTLE GO!!!

I do miss hearing from you all...

I know it's exciting and kind of scary going over to the "other" side of the store.

      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.
