Thanks everyone...I feel amazing. I feel pretty again. I know my health is the most important thing, but my MENTAL health was in the toilet and now it's not. I have plication surgery Jan 10th with Dr. Abril in Mexicali...My start weight was 272 and a size 22 jean. Today I am 239 and a size 16 jean. I have a ways to go, but not too far bacause my husband likes the "meat". So I am shooting for 160 or a size 10-12. Lot's of hanging belly skin even with lot's of exercise...so another trip to Mexicali is coming for my 1 year anniversary. Love my peeps down there, Love Omar my patient coordinator and Roxanne and the staff at Hospital Santa Catalina!! Thanks again everyone!!

Wow! You look fantastic. Can't wait until I'm a size 16 again.

I totally agree with you about being a size 10-12, the perfect size IMO! :)

It was tricky...I went to me profile and then to my gallery and tried creating a photo album, I don't know if that really worked, then I saw at the bottom of this post page, there is a choose file option and I started messing around with that, and quite by accident I managed to attach a picture. I repeated my mistake several times and wella! Pictures!! I don't know if I can do it again...good luck!!

How did you do the pics by the way? I can't seem to figure it out.

      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.
