My hubby always thought I was a "10" regardless of what size pants I wore but today I couldn't put it off for much longer and went to Marshalls for some pants, ended up buying 2 pairs of capri length pants that I can wear with flats for the rest of the Summer and boots in the Winter and 1 pair of dress pants all for 36.00. Not too bad. But every pair of pants I tried on today was a 10, and they all fit perfectly!!! So needless to say I am stoked!! Can we say size 8 here we come?? I think I can lol From a size 18 to 10 in 4 1/2 months not too bad.

That is awesome :) What made me smile the most was when you said that your husband said you were a 10 no matter what pants you were! You are a lucky woman! Congrats on hitting the size 10. I can't wait to be there!

Congrats and thank you for sharing! I have a huge event the third week of January and I am so excited and a bit anxious to see what size I will be at that time. My hubby is like yours and always says I'm beautiful no matter what size I am, hubbys like ours are a true blessing!

Good luck to you and I hope you reach those 8s before you know it!

I will post pics as soon as I can ;) I am amazed at how well they fit too. no muffin top or pinching just button and zip it up LOL . Thanks guys. I have to say I didn't lose anything this week but I don't think these would have fit me like this last week. This whole process is weird, rewarding, frustrating, exhiliarating, etc. etc. But thank goodness for all you guys here because it helps to keep my attitude positive to know that there are others that are going through the same thing as me. Lord knows as much as hubby has supported me through this entire process and obsessing, I know I wear him down sometimes and have to button my lip LOL

      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.
