Hello Everyone,

One of my supportive staff members took a picture of me today, and emailed it to me, along with a photo she had of me from 2 years ago! I was SHOCKED...and just had to share with you! I'm 5 lbs away from my initial goal (which I intend to revise once reached).

I am 5'7, and started this journey wearing size 22 pants and weighing 273 lbs. Today, I'm still 5'7 (ha, ha), am wearing size 10 jeans, and weigh 165lbs. See for yourself!

I loved your comment "and still 5'7". You look amazing and the best part of your after picture is that I am about the same height and I want to be approximately the same weight and now I know what I could possibly look like. It brought tears of joy to my eyes. Thank you 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.
