i decided to put together these pics and maybe help someone who is looking into the surgery or someone who is having a rough time! this is the best decision i have ever made for myself! i still have a little bit more to lose and it gets harder as time goes on, but when i look back and my pics before surgery it reminds me of how i NEVER want to look and feel that way again! looking at those pics also reminds me of how far i have come and that i should be proud of myself! some days are harder than others but overall this has been an amazing journey so far!

I look just like your "before" pics! Very inspiring. I'm doing the exact same thing (front/side/back views) every 15lbs, to remind myself of my progress should I become discouraged. What I see in the mirror can be so distorted. Thanks for sharing!

      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.
