You look awesome! Congrats on the weightloss. And I know we all hate the "pretty face" thing, but you really do have a beautiful face! :)

You guys are SO sweet! You sure know how to make a girl's day. I have LOVED life since surgery and cannot recommended this enough. I remember how much I loved seeing progress pics prior to surgery so I want to share. I must admit that I cried when I read some of your sweet comments. :)

I think one of the neatest things lately is to look around a room of "normal" people (who I have always considered normal....other moms, friends, etc.) And realize that I look the same size (or even smaller)! All I have ever hoped for is to feel normal ....never set out to be skinniest chick in the room or a super model. Just hope to look and feel like I fit in with the others around me.

You guys have just really blessed me today and I am so thankful for your kind words. I'll try to post some more in a few months. :)

      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.
