My two oldest daughters (6 & 5) asking my best friend if she was sick. She is about 125 pounds soaking wet. She said "no, why?". My oldest said "your so skinny". Then my middle daughter says " we don't want to be skinny like you, we want to be like Mommy". My heart crumbled. I have 3 daughters that look up to me and I need to be someone that they can look up to.

I have a 20 month old daughter that I can't chase on the playground. I can't fit in theatre seats or concert seats. Booths at restaurants got tighter and clothes got smaller. I realized this was simply not ok. Surgery was Dec 4.

I was sitting listening to my friend go on and on about my skills with horses. I was giving ridding lessons by the time I was in JR. High. I would get on a horse now because I feel it's cruel over a certain size. The one that broke the camels back is my ex posted a pic of me on Facebook. And 100 comments later of OMG you were so beautiful. And I didn't even know that was you. Broke my heart. Not gonna lie.

I stopped posting most pics of myself on FB because of that. There are a few, but not many.

      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.
