This morning I weigh less than my husband ( who happens to be a very in shape Marine). I have been chasing that goal for a long time. I also went from 226 to 174 and that means I past my goal of 175 and I get a new living room set!!!! Still havent bought any new clothes but I dont want to waste money. I would much rather wait until I hit my goal and buy LOTS of nice clothes.

I had to buy some new clothes as my jeans was getting to fall down on the floor. I went to the thrift store to find a couple of pair of jeans to tide me over. What a great goal of getting new furniture. Keep up the good work. I am hoping for 175 by Mardi Gras weekend and I may be able to pass that goal with my current rate of losing.

      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.
