Hello all!!

Its my 5 month update!!! Couldn't be happier!!!

I am in a misses 14 from a 24W!!

wearing plain large from womens 2x's!

I am close to goal I know I can do this!

No lose skin- just a little wrinkle action on my abdomen-- not bad at all!

Some hair loss-- but I am managing-- had a ton to start.

All in all my weight loss has been nearly effortless. I work out lightly 3x to 4x per week to help with the skin.

I am eating a min. of 1200-1400 cals a day.

I have enough confidence finally that I have an amazing new man in my life!

I LOVE MY SLEEVE!

thanks girl! My typical day is as follows (with some variations of course) breakfast: cottage cheese single- 19 grams of protien snack: 1/4 cup of nuts or trail mix of some sort. Lunch: 1/2 cup of a steak burrito bowl from chipotle with everything (including rice and beans) I can make one last 6 meals easy! With 5 chips. snack is a venti iced vanilla latte (not skinny, not sugar free) ! dinner is always chicken breast or pork tenderloin or some other yummy meat with 1/4 cup of veggies. And I always have a snack at bedtime like 1/4 cup of cheezits, or something else carby- small portion!!! Sounds great right???

      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.
