You deserve it MORE than those who stick their noses up because you have taken charge of your life and are making positive changes. So climb in that chair shoulders straight and say I am worth it! Beside even those skinny little size 0's have crosses to bear as well. Enjoy!!!!

Please don't feel that way...I work at an upscale salon & believe me, they all have their insecurities as well! You should walk in there & be proud of how far you've come, you're so worth it!

Big hugs to you, Carolinagirl......Please enjoy your day!

You march in there, holding your head high and proud! Look how much weight you've lost already!! I mean, just think, you're 73 pounds lighter!!

One of my favorite sayings: "No one can make you feel inferior without your consent".

Don't give them consent. ;)

Carolinagirl, I'm so happy for YOU! Did you do a total makeover?

I'm not sure about Nellis having an air show but, we were certainly busy on the strip...

      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.
