Celebrating 6 months since surgery this month and wanted to share my first set of pics. I CAN NOT believe I'm posting these, but I'm starting to feel more comfortable with myself and decided to just do it! What a difference 52 pounds makes!! I looked like the marshmallow girl and didn't even realize it!!! lol! The first pic is at my starting weight of 299 before surgery. Then the 2nd pic is 3 months in and the last is 6 months and weighing 247. :)

you look awesome, keep it up. I need to post pics of me I guess, embarrassed to. We are the same heigth and were about the same weight, I was 294 when I started June 13 and I'm down 53 lbs as of today, 7 mos out. I see my surgeon this Thurs hopefully for a fill.

Keep up the good work.

I promise I will try and post pics tonight or tomorrow. My gallery pic is not the before pic I messed that up, that pic was taken in Oct, somehow my before pic got erased or replaced with the October one. duh. lol.

      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.
