Out of the Plus sizes.... Yahooooo!!!! I went to buy an outfit for Saturday's party and went in to my usual store Debs plus sizes . I picked up a size smaller which is size 16 too big I went and got size 14 still to big. I ask the sales person if there was something smaller in the plus sizes and she said " the other side of the store" regular sizes. I decieded to try a 13 thinking " they're not gonna fit" I'm going to have to buy the big jeans. GUESS what? ........

THey fit.!!! I am so happy I haven't been in the regular sizes in years. Im still amazed and soooo happyyyyy!!! I am so happy with this accomplishment...

Yay for you!!!!!!!!

It is weird to walk into a regular store and buy clothes, but it feels fantastic. I still pick up my jeans and think that they look way too small, but then I slip them on and zip them up - its a miracle!!!

Congratuations!!!!!!

I can't wait for the day that I can find a store that has regular sizes in it, and I fit into them. I hate the "big ladies store" I think for some reasons, that designers think we need horizontal stripes and big flower patterns. Ugh, I think that we're big enough without that help. I'm really looking forward to Regular Sizes! Haven't been there in nearly 17 1/2 years. It should be fun. Congrats to you!B)

      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.
