You know you can save alot of money - well if you like your old cloths - and have them taken in... any good seamstress can adjust your shirts and pants to fit you.

You know, it's really odd.....I've favored the large/colorful/obnoxious/unusual shirt patterns for decades....until my size dropped from "morbidly obese" to merely "obese". I haven't worn my former favorites in years now. The ones not already sent back to Omar the Tentmaker......my former seamstress...

I too hauled off boxes & bundles of the old forlorn favorites. My clothing tastes have changed along with a lot of other unexpected things.

I also now find it convenient to shop for jeans at various Good Will stores. Usually now I can wear 44, down from 56-58. Typically pants now can cost from 9.99 to 2.99 depending. It's a sort of new hobby, to find pants I like in that venue. The other day I found a new-unworn pair of jeans that was 3.99 I would have grabbed....but the rear pocket had some incredibly annoying gold embroidery designs on it.

Getting rid of box loads of my old too big stuff was a symbolic and valuable experience for me.

      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.
