Thank you all so very much. Honestly, I feel like a different woman. I see that b4 pic and think, "was that really me"? I look different now, act different now, and feel different. It sounds cliche, but I got my life back!!!

:huh:

You are doing so well. The proof is in the picture. WOW

Thank you for taking the time to share this great journey you are on. It helps us who are only 4 weeks out of surgery. YOU go girl! ;)

I didn't lose very much this month (8 lbs.) however I did lose another 13 inches.

This brings my total weight loss to 88.2 lbs. and my total inches lost to 67.25.

This is still a wild trip and everyday is a new adventure in learning. But, I guess the most important thing is that I am still finding new info all the time.

I can't help but wonder sometimes how I would have done this without the internet. I shudder to think of going through this without the knowledge and support I get here.

Thanks to all of you for being here, giving me feedback, support, warm thoughts and prayers. You guys help me so much. (((hugs)))

      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.
