Recommended Posts

You look fabulous - what a difference - it is amazing how we all have changed but sitll come here to this site to share.

I am a justice of the peace and often cringed at my photos which I knew would be in everyone's albums or mantels for years. I performed a wedding last Friday night and stood up there with a new feeling (54lbs lighter after 3.5 months).

Thanks for always being so positive - the sleeve is a great tool which has brough to many of us a new sense of being

Aww' date=' Sexy Lady. I didn't even address that; I'm sorry. Yes, the pain will get better! It's tough to do, but the best cure for that is to get up and move as much as you can. Walking really helped me work past the pain I had, not to mention it started the toning process. Everyone experiences pain differently, so yours may feel worse than others right now. Do you have pain meds? If so, use them if needed. There are no awards for not using the pain meds. If you need them, USE them. :)

In a couple of weeks you'll be feeling much better. In a couple of months, you'll be down 30 pounds and the joy of that will make this pain seem like nothing compared to the joy you're feeling. Good Luck!! :0[/quote']

Thanks you so much Lisa! As far as eating can I just have Jello and crystal light

Hey, if you really look at my during picture (cause I'm NOT done yet), you'll see that the arms and thighs are really starting to shape up. Yeah, I've got loose skin, but there's some major muscle in those two areas. I didn't post the booty picture, but it's looking pretty hawt too. ;) At least in my opinion!

      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.
