I bought a fabulous dress in a 10/12/L from Nordstroms because it was deeply discounted and amazing. i was thinking I'd wear it at goal... but it fit 15 lbs ago, and is getting alittle big now... I'm getting it tailored, but I bet that once my last 25 lbs are gone, it'll be too big... LOL

The day after I had my first consult I was at a thrift store and I saw a new pair of size 12 Wranglers with the tags still on them. I bought them. I have never been a size 12. Im so excited, They are sitting in my closet and every day I imagine myself in them, silly I know, but it is the little things that make us happy!

I have not purchased anything new, for some reason just have not felt the urge. I am having fun going through my closet and pulling out items hidden in the back and/or boxed on shelves. Did make a decision to shop thrift/second hand stores for pants when the times comes. Just cannot imagine paying retail when I may not get full use of it.

When I do begin shopping again, my goal is to visit a Lane Bryant and try not to burst into tears. Ages ago this was my favorite store but it has been a very long time since I have been able to shop there. My store of last resort for many years, Catherine's, can go pound sand from now on! :)

      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.
