Thank you very much' date=' ur too kind :) I still have about 12 hours left on my backpiece before its done though. Well honestly I'm not ur model sleever. I live my normal life n eat n drink what I want when I want just not 5000 calories of it daily. I have an active life but I don't exercise outside of daily activities (ER nurse, walk dogs, getting off the couch lol etc). I'm surprised how well my skin bounced back actually, I've had stretch marks since elementary just from normal growth spurts so I knew my elasticity was not going to be good, but it was good enough. My belly is kinda pouchy but not as bad as what it seems in the bikini pic (bloated n poor posture from long day at the pool). My boobs n but have deflated n inner thighs are lookin kinda sad. But I love life again. Wish I could give u some advice but I really just went on about my life after surgery and it just kinda happened[/quote']

That is exactly, exactly what I plan on doing! I pray I have the same results. I am two weeks out and I'm eating tiny, tiny portions of what I want (softer) foods but I'm not counting calories, obsessing over everything that goes in my mouth. I know how to eat healthy and I am making better choices but I plan on living my life; just with tiny portions! BTW... I'm an L &D nurse and in Texas too!

      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.
