It's been 3 months, going into 4... I've had 3 fill ins, still trying to get into my green zone. I loose, but not as much as I hoped for. I think I need to work out more. Starting weight at 257 current weight 219.

Here's some Pixs:

Last month, shirt fit me big I got my old size but it didn't fit well, sadly I wore it once, and not again

This is me now, with a shirt that marinated in my closet for two years. It fits and loose now....

Well everyone, I can really only count with the honesty that you lovely people can give me. It least I know you will be honest.

I can handle it! :)

Down 38 pounds in 3 months, that is about 3 pounds a week. Which is above the average of 1-2 pounds a week. So lets be honest......That is great!!!

Keep doing what you are doing, it's working great! Congrats on the progress. :D

BTW - You look great, too.

Look, I'll be honest, but I don't think you'll like what I have to say.... So, if you can REALLY "handle it" let me know and I'll tell you what I see/think.

Honesty is key right? Let me guess? I look the same? Looks like I haven't lost anything? Still fat? Throw it on me I'm sure it's not Anything I haven't heard before.

April 24th. I like that the weight comes off slowly enough that I occasionally get really surprised by unnoticed changes. There is one pair of pants I'm always sucking in my gut to put on...and then I realize...I don't need to suck it in anymore....they fit fine...and are actually getting too big!

You need to put on a shirt thats a little tighter so you can start to see your shape change...you'll be amazed!

      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.
