thank you all so very much for these inspiring words of confidence, it means so much. As I stated before, it took a lot of courage to post these pics as I was ashamed at what I look like.

To answer some of your questions, I have not been able to do much exercising along with my weigh loss as for the first 6 months I was pretty much sick due to my gallbladder and then on Dec 3rd I had to have gallbladder surgery and just now am getting back my strength from that. As far as walking, I need to do that but I have a bad knee that I've had 2 surgeries on that hurts me when I do too much so with weight loss I'm sure will come easier on my joints. I just bought an exercise ball to do crunches and various things with at home.

someone asked any nonscale victories: well yes, I just had a birthday on Sunday, here's one, I didn't have cake for the first time in 47 years...ha ha ha, yea for me!!!

Thanks again to all of you for your kind words.

Donna

You have done such a great job. 50 + pounds is a lot of weight. Keep up the good work.

I posted pictures yesterday and I totally understand how you felt. I think it's amazing to see how your body changes and acknowledge your success. Before surgery I used to come on here and read and look at everyone's posts and I loved the photo ones they gave me such hope. As I truly did not think I would do so well. Your doing great keep posting photos.

Wow! I can really see a difference. I was banded 7 weeks ago, am in bandster hell, and am very frustrated. This is really motivating, so thanks for having the courage to post these. You're doing wonderfully!

      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?

      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.
