Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

I have embraced a new GOAL!!



Recommended Posts

This morning I am getting my last procedure performed. The results from my previous one has already provided results beyond my wildest dreams! I still have so much swelling to go down, I just can't believe how amazed I am!

So... I had these jeans I bought. They are Levi's Size 4 / 27 Skinny Jeans I bought from their website. Now these are REAL size 4's. They are more like Size ZERO in stores or vanity sizing. I had them sitting around wondering if I could or even should ever try to really get into them. Well, with my results so far I finally believe that goal is really achievable.

I announce here and now, this is MY NEW GOAL!! I virtual size 0. ZERO!!!

I am going to buy some 0's from the store so I'll be able to say that I really am in Zero's but I seriously doubt it will really matter. I know I'll do it.

I didn't know where else to place this. It's not really a "success" just yet... and now I'm looking forward to making that post in the success section!!!!

Have a great day everyone. I probably won't be around much for the next few days because I'll be recovering. I just wanted to put this out there for now while I'm of sound mind. LOL!!

Diva - hope the procedure went well and you are on the road to feeling better. You will fit into those size 4 levis size 0 vanity sizes in no time!

My 12 skinny jeans from Levi's are starting to get lose - but NO WAY my skeleton would ever fit into a 4. You are a TINY and beautiful woman. WAY TO GO!

Haha!! You all are so amazing! Such a breath of fresh air for me this morning.

I'm sitting here with my cup of coffee and healing is going really good. Pain is not as bad as the first one, I think due to taking my pain medication this time (don't ask) and the areas completed aren't as sensitive.

Just wanted to give a quick check in that I'm a-ok. Day 2 is statistically the worst so if that's the case I'll be up and at em in no time at all.

:bolt:

I have a pair of Levi's size 6 jeans that fit, so I've also been wondering if they may be a bit vanity-sized LOL. But you will be in those 4s in no time, I'm sure. And I can't wait to see how the Lipo went!! Here's hoping the lack of killer pain stays the same for the next few days!! :biggrin:

Hello!! I got my new jeans today. Zappos is great. ;-) Aaaannnyyywwaayyyy... I took a few photos to share because I wanted to show the differences (not much) in "vanity sizing". You can see the Levi's and the NYDJ's are exactly the same size... yet the Levi's are 4's and the NYDJ's are 0's. In fact, I'm saying right now, I'll fit those 0's first. They are much more stretchy and have more leg room. LMAO!!!!

Ready, Set, GO!!! Like I said, I don't care how long this takes. I'm just going to keep doing what I know how to do and spot checking during my workouts. Could take 6 months, could take a year, I don't know.

      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.
