My wedding ring is too big and I won't be able to wear it for much longer.

It's a good thing cause I'm getting smaller but also a bad thing as I don't want to have it sized multiple times so I will have to go without it for a quite a while until I get to goal

I have been excluded from participating in my employers weight loss challenge. The supervisor said im too small. Never thought that would happen in life.

Finally decided to get my rings sized down 4 sizes! $$ but I cannot believe my fingers are this small! My drivers license picture does not work anymore. Guess it's time for the dreaded dmv line ????

this morning I was walking the dog at "dark thirty" wearing a tee shirt that I honestly thought before was just skimpy on the fabric as I bought it at Target last year. sometimes cheaper stores cut their shirts shorter.... anyway. I used to have to tug at it so my belly wouldn't sneak out and show someone (that belly I had was quite a flasher) I must have been stretching it side to side -_-

well darn if that shirt doesn't hang past my hips to the top of my thighs now that this fat suit is melting away. I'm now in danger of the v neck revealing something more substantial than flashing my tummy! so glad I wear it with a sports bra.

That's so smart! Thanks!

I'm getting married 20 August and moved to the UK a few weeks ago (my fiance is a Brit and because he is in IT and has a very good job, we decided to settle in the UK because as a mortician, I can work anywhere). When I was going through the TSA line, they had to call a supervisor over since I don't look anything like my passport photo anymore. I'm even smaller than I was in my fiancee visa picture, so they were even skeptical of that! It finally took a biometric check to get through x.x. It's a good thing that after we're married, I have to get a new passport with my new last name on it because when I travel, I don't want to go through that again!

Finally took a trip to Mexico with the hubby and rocked a bikini all week. I did things that were way out of my comfort zone like paddle boarding & snorkeling. So happy to have made these life choices with surgery, nutrition & exercise!

      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.
