Think of all the guilt and inward negativity you have had for the past many years. Now start making all that come out as the opposite. If you treated yourself terrible (ashamed, whatever) then now you owe it to yourself to treat yourself extra awesome. As you shed pounds and find the new you, be extra proud, share pictures rejoice in the new you. And do it with the same level of intensity that you used to reserve for feeling bad.

You look great - celebrate! And share your new happiness. It will make you feel better and it helps inspire all of the rest of us. And a year from now, you will look at these pictures and think - that was nothing... look at me now!!!

You look amazing, and you can just see how much happier you are now. It's like you're glowing! I wish I had the courage you do! I'm down 90+ lbs, and still don't go in front of the camera. I'm hoping to start working on that soon though :)

Thanks for your compliments everyone! They truly mean a lot to me. I really do enjoy the camera more now. I cannot wait to continue to take pictures so that I can continue to track my progress.

I wish all of you the best!

      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.
