One thing I think about when I lose the weight is going on a shopping spree! All new smaller, cuter clothes! Who is with me and what's the first thing you would want to buy?

Mine is panties and bras!!! =)

I already have that planned. I'm a huge fan of Dressbarn because their clothes fit me like they are tailor made. Saying that, the store manager knows me REALLY well considering how much money I leave in there every month. I told her I was going to have to do a big spree when I got to my goal weight. She offered to come in early or stay late while the store was shut down and let me come in and have at it. Now isn't that great? I'm not sure I want to inconvenience her like that, but doesn't that sound awesome? Having a whole store to yourself?

For me, jeans, definitely jeans. I have my size 10 skinny jeans in the closet which I will wear but I've always wanted to splurge on a pair of 7 or True Religion jeans.

I love dress barn! That's so cool they are willing to do that for you!! My mom has offered to pay for a large chunk of my shopping trip, she's almost as excited as me!! I'm picturing a "pretty woman shopping spree" moment!! =)

Totally Pretty Women! I'm socking away my cash already so I plan on having a blow out on anything I like and want to buy whether it's $200 or $2,000. Of course, Victoria's Secret is located conveniently next door so you bet your booty that will be my next stop!

I used to wear jeans and t-shirts when I was thinner and although I still wear that, I can't wait to buy them in smaller sizes and feel good about what I have on. I always seem to feel "frumpy" in them now. I can't wait to feel "cute"!

I live in Florida! I am looking forward to a good ole fashioned girly bathing suit. I want to walk the beach with my head held high! No more shorts and fat lady tshirts hiding my body. Just me, the sun, the sand..and my cute, cute bathing suit!

I want to be able to shop in a normal sized section of a department store instead of a Lane Bryant, Ave, or plus sized store or section. Can't wait. As far as body image goes, I have really big hips and legs and upper arms, always have so at some point I will have to have skin removed, I do not think any amount of exercise can tighten what I have. With that said, my hips have shrunk a lot in 7 months. I also want to be able to wear a cute right about the knee sweater dress with tights and be able to fit into some boots, right now my legs are too big. And most of all, off the subject, I'm single/divorced so I wanna be hit on by a single male...teeheee. Just had to throw that one in, who knows I may find him in the clothing store. Bahahaha

Don't even get me started on shoes! I have a bunch of 4 inch heel shoes, sandals, and boots that I wore in my size 12 days. Can't wear them now because the weight makes my feet hurt. But I'll be dusting those off again soon too. Don't have a pair of animal prints though so that might be something to add to the list.

      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.
