Hi! I have a couple of questions, if you don't mind? You look amazing? Do you exercise regularly? If so how soon after surgery did you start? I am concerned about skin elasticity. Did you do any stretching, like yoga or Pilates? You look incredible. Congrats!!!! How many lbs off? :)

Thank you! Yes, I exercise regularly, ranging from running, biking, elliptical, abdominal work and being active with my kids. I wish I had more time to hit the weights, but there is only so much one can do with a full time job, 4 kids ranging from 2-10, and home to run. Elastic it depends on various factors: age, amount of time being over weight and your size, motherhood. 20 something's have great results with their tummies. Older women, those who suffered for obesity for decades and mothers...well, not so much. My lower stomach from the belly button down is shot. I have a flap of skin with tons of stretch marks. I will eventually get the abdomnioplasty or Tummy Tuck. But, on the bright side you can't tell with clothes--at all! I've dropped, from my highest weight, 85 pounds. I had a 100 to lose...almost there!!!

      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.
