I went to my daughter's concert and realized, I didn't have to carefully ooze into the seat, I was too small to touch the sides and my pants pockets were in no danger of pulling on the armrests.

When your 90 lbs Lab can sit with you on a recliner that barely used to fit your butt 6 months ago!

When you get a Large Jawbone and realize you could or ordered a medium band!

When you open your closed and all of your recently purchased blauses are really too big now.. :)

I am extra grateful today :)

When your husband slips his arm around your waist in the store and then starts feeling you up there before saying with a grin, "Man, you have really lost weight!"

(This happened yesterday!)

When your dad (who's been needling you how overweight you are for the past 30+ years) starts telling you you're losing too much weight and you need to stop.

As an added bonus, I am now able to wear one of HIS coats that he's too fat to wear anymore!!! NSV!!!!

      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.
