I went into a normal store today and bought a size 22 denim capri's, I was so excited. I think I will try on a pair of size 22 jeans tomorrow. So glad I did this!!!

LOL, thats great Donna!

I think that even though I don't need any new clothes, I should go into stores and just try things on, just because I can and it does make you feel good.

I remember the days of having to try things on and not wanting to, knowing you were just going to leave in tears.

Get NSV! Keep it up!

Line Dancer, you said it all, what a way to start a week for sure! Thanks all of you for your comments. I went from a size 26/28 to this, wow. And in tops I'm in a 1X now, I just can't believe it. My mom has lost weight too and she's passing her jammies to me, its funny, it feels like Christmas around here for me, hee hee. I'm getting Coldwater Creek jackets from her from last summer that she can't wear anymore and I can, summer jackets with tanks and I'm also in some 18/20's shirts, I'm just so stoked! IN aw of myself.

I know just how you feel!! My mom and I had Lapband at the same time and she was always smaller than me! So when we started losing weight all her stuff now fits me and she buys new! I also went from a 26/28 to a 18/20!! It feels awesome! Keep us the good work!

      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.
