Thank you so much again for the extremely kind words. I can't wait until the fourth picture is one of me holding out the waist of the jeans to show a large gap! The abroad program I did in college, semester at sea, is having a big 5 year reunion cruise leaving on January third, so I'm going to try to lose 40-45 more pounds by then...fingers crossed! I'm not in love with the idea of hitting a Mexican beach with a bunch of friends I haven't seen in 5 years. The goal is to at least look decent in a sarong!

Wow you look fantastic! You seem to carry a lot of weight in the middle and I think that may be why your sizing has been slow to decrease but you have almost totally lost all the bulk of the mid section weight!! Totally amazing job!!

I DEFINITELY carry most of my weight in my mid section (not that every other part of me is small)! I do a bootcamp that focuses on a different body part each day if the week, but one day of abs definitely isn't enough! I've been spending extra time on abs and obliques. Hopefully that'll help!

      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.
