I went to Loft today and caught a major sale. A friend gave me a gift card before I could even fit into their clothes! I held onto it and used it today. I tried on a pair of size 12 shorts...too big...then a 10 and I thought...Oh no..this can't be!!

I felt like Diva when I took a picture of my shorts. One of these days, I will figure out how to post pics. Mine all seem too big.

My first goal is to weigh 150 (I am 164 now). Then I will set another goal of 5 pounds...

I was so scared to have the sleeve after the LapBand nightmare...So glad I did. I am LIVING for the first time in many years.

NSV for you... I waiter spilled a drink on me at a bar because he was staring at my boobs!! LOL

Ha ha, thats brilliant, what a great NSV!!!

I wore a mini dress to work last week, and felt really self conscious all day, but when I went out for a walk around the block at lunch a guy literally just stopped dead in front of me looking at my legs, I had to walk around him to get past!!!

It made me smile the rest of the day! :D

I looove to hear NSV's like this!! You have worked really hard to get to where you are now and deserve all the spilled drinks! ;)

Just a hint, I edit my photos on good ole MS Paint. I don't need any of the other expensive fancy schmancy photo shop things. When you open your picture in MS Paint, you just "Resize" or on the older versions it's called "Stretch/Skew" in Edit option. I do size 25% and it comes out nice. Good luck!

      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.
