I'm 4'11"- so I'm super short. I'm not a crazy working out person- I actually just joined a gym, but I do walk a lot. I walk my kids to/from school and then run for about another mile or two every other day.

Everyone looks great! Congratulations!! Only about 4 weeks out from surgery I can tell I lost a few inches and its weird to measure this way but my towel closes after a shower. I use to have an opening gap between the ends of the towel and now it overlaps!! Yeah I know it's weird.. But once I get to it ill have to start taking pics of the journey.

I'm 5'7" so I'm feeling a bit taller than most of the women posting. Lol

They're pretty good honestly! This pic was taken on July 4th

I've lost about 10lbs since then.

And that was fairly recently- they aren't perfect, but they aren't HORRIBLE!

      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.
