Recommended Posts

I stood there at the mall (which I rarely grace) and was looking at this very very cute miniskirt. . but hell it was only in a 16 R. . . errrr why don't they make these for us fatties! I, of course, wear a 18W. . . errrr!!!! so i walked away thinking whatever. . . something kept nittering in my brain though, "go try it on, what will it hurt, it will either fit or it won't" Good Lord OK brain shut up! So i went back, took the little cute skirt and went to the fitting room! WELL SHUT THE FRONT DOOR! The dang thing fit! And with some room to boot! I was so in shock! I looked at myself in that 20" skirt and said out loud "Well good for me!" I'm 3 years out and thought for sure size 18 was going to the size for me and had excepted that concept already, afterall I came from a size 32W all the way down to a 18W! hell why not, 18W is good!. . .well I guess not huh?

      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.
