Awesome NSV! I know exactly how you feel. This morning I brought a size 18 petite into the change room by mistake (was reaching for the 20's). I tried them on and they fit! Of course I had to buy them! At Christmas I was a size 24.

I still cant believe that my body is getting smaller.

So, so very happy for you! I know exactly how it feels...not to have to shop in the Plus Size dept anymore! I recommend, however that you keep at least one of your old outfits. I didn't keep any of mine and I wish I had.

I'm glad you said this. I have put everything in bags to get rid of. I am going to dig one outfit out and keep it in the back of the closet as a reminder of how far I have come. Thanks so much!

      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.
