Can I just tell you this



Recommended Posts

I just have to tell someone this. This morning I got into a pair of pants that have been hanging in my closet for a year! They are cold weather pants and haven't tried them on since about March. Well, I was looking for something to wear, tried them on, and not only did I get them one but they fit perfectly! Yea for me!!!

I had to tell you guys cause I knew you would understand. I can't tell my sisters or my friends because they are all struggling with weight loss and won't take the lap band plunge. Yipee!!!!

Laura, that is a wonderful NSV. Congratulations! I think it is fun "going shopping" in my own closet and rediscovering things I haven't been able to wear in forever.

Congratulations!!!! 60 pounds gone, YOU GO GIRL!! That's great that you don't want to hurt their feelings.

I have been enjoying wearing old things from my closet that use to be to tight and nOw are loose or just to darn big. The only problem is now I look a mess with these big clothes on and I don't want to buy new clothes until I'm in 26/28 nicely. I'm getting there.

Good for you Laura, I am so feeling how wonderful you felt when you tried those pants on. I can now wear blouses I haven't wore in a year or so. Doesn't waking up and doing things like that just put you in the best mood?

You go girl!

      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.
