Thanks for all the wonderful compliments, I'm smiling.

Oh bathing suits. I've got quite a collection. The bottoms are from a Lands End set I got on E-bay. The top for that set was dirty at the time (very cute with one large stripe over the bust) so I wore it with a tankini I've had for years, I think it was purchased at Mervys. I have a purple set tankini top, boy short bottoms I just love also from E-bay. The trick for me is I buy bathing suits 2 sizes larger. Ebay has great deals if your quick to "buy them now" or wait till the last minute to bid so you don't drive up the price. These suits can run $60.00 at the store, isn't it ridicules the price of clothing! I love E-bay

      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.
