Ok Im insane for even considering posting pics but here I am... LOL

I hit 100 lbs (on the nose) down today. My husband took the before pics the night before my surgery. I hadn't looked at them until today. It was QUITE a wake up call to me. I've still got about another 50 lbs to go. It depends on how I feel I look when I get there. I'm aiming for a size 10. My "after" picture was taken when I wanted to see what the dress I ordered for my brother in laws wedding looked like (we did away with mirrors in our house years ago. I guess it's time to get some full length mirrors huh?)

haha you know I'm not quite sure who that skinny b***h is in that other picture ;)

i gotta tell you though.. this was the first time I looked at the pre op picture. Talk about a serious wake up call. I still saw myself as the basketball with hair up until I saw the side by side. I now see what everyone's been talking about. I never thought I'd hit 100 lbs down... ever. :)

It IS too big on me! And my mother in law measured me the day I ordered the damned thing. Yesterday morning I called around to see where I could get it altered within a decent amount of time. One of the cleaners said they had a 2-3 day turn around time. I explained to him the WLS and trying to cut it down to the wire on the alteration. I'm going to take it in probably a week & a half before the wedding and hope I don't end up with the Alice in Wonderland effect. And trying it on didnt even involve the Spanx which I've yet to buy. I did get some sheer hose with the black seams up the back to tart things up a bit ;)

      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.
