I feel my bones!



Recommended Posts

I was in bed, lying on my side I began to feel something hard. I sit up and pull the covers back to examine what this is??? Turns out it was just my legs and the bones around my knee and thigh area that I have never felt because they have been buried under so much fat! I've since also felt my upper arm bones as well. Feels great! :-)

I remember when that happened to me. It's still very surreal to see hip bones, collar bones, rib cage, etc. I dont know if I'll ever get used to it :)

That's awesome!! Thanks for sharing! These kinds of topics are always so fun to read and so motivational! I noticed I can feel the bones in my face when I wash it and my hands feel very different when I rub lotion on them! I too cant wait to see hip bones!!! :)

      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.
