You are a very pretty girl. You were pretty before you surgery. I hate when people tell me awww you have such a pretty face, so I would never say that!!! You just have a smile that seems infectious. Do you think your attitude has changed?

it has. but i dont know if its because of the weight loss or the betrayal of close friends when i was hospitalized from my leak. now, i keep my head up high which my on and off boyfriend of 10yrs feels im "full of myself". i guess hes used to me being insecure where now im not. he hates that i get attention from guys & feels like im "gassed because of it but thats false! those r his own insecurities playing tricks on him. i think ex friends are jealous because they suffer with weight issues and "look down" on weight loss surgery patients. if anyone thinks they are better than anyone, it would be them thinking they are better than us! i think they are just haters. then its ppl like that that make the "new jaz" come out & ill say things that make me sound cocky like "she wish she looked like me" etc. but its only because of the way "she"/they act. otherwise, i wouldnt say anything like that.

I have to admit I got a little teary eyed when I watched this because I know how much you struggled at first with your leak etc.and now to see the before and after and how far you have come along..it's really heart touching!! I'm so happy for you! You are doing amazing! I bet you feel amazing and you look amazing! It's sad that you have people who have tried to hold you down because of their insecurities and face it probably jealousy. I think WLS in general has been thought of as being the "easy way" out for so long that people just accept that. They don't understand it's not the easy way out. It takes work, and commitment, and not everyone can commit to it! You can and have! That just shows you're stronger than them!

i wish i could squeeze you right now! you have no idea how it makes me feel when people took the time to read my rants and actually feel for me. people who were closest to me didnt even give a KCUF about my pain and suffering and people who ive been there for never cared! but people ive never met care! it makes me teary eyed reading stuff like that. thank you for remembering me. its much appreciated.

      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.
