70 LBS DOWN TODAY!!!! Boooooooooom! ;) Victory is SWEET!

I have some setbacks:

-Ate some CRAP sugary food over the last 3 weeks. Stalled my A$$ off!

-Stopped killing it at the gym due to a Derby Injury

NSV's:

I bought several XL things including an adorable dress & they all FIT AWESOMELY! That is regular ladies XL, not 1X.... just to clarify (& gloat)

I bought a size 12 REGULAR WIDTH strappy ridiculous heels that SCREAM Vegas (will be there in one month!) I was up to a 13W before surgery.

I am currently wearing a tank top from the JUNIORS section. it has a multi-color zebra pattern & I think I'm going to wear it to the gym later! :)

I can sit in the school chairs that have arms on them now.

I can walk up to the third floor apartment of a friend of mine & I can still breathe!!

My collarbones exist... and they are LOVELY!

So, pretty damn good if you ask me. I have many more victories than setbacks & I start regular practices with the Charlotte Rollergirls Derby team IN ONE WEEK EXACTLY! L-O-V-I-N-G my new life~

ALSO.... CHECK OUT MY VIDEO BLOG ON YOUTUBE. More about my derby adventures there. Link is in my signature. I would love your feedback!!!!

OMG those shoes belong to a greek goddess! They look GREAT. I wear a 12 too... and always nice to find a cool pair of shoes. I am wearing heels now too. I have a friend who just put out a book about the derby... went to a Bay Area Bombers game a couple of months ago to help him sell his book. Have a blast in Vegas! Take pictures!

Congratulations on your Success!

I was wondering if the feet will actually shrink. I'm in a 10 now and still have some shoes I do not want to part with. Oh Well...that will be a good thing.

Again, Congrats and enjoy Vegas!

      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.
