Thank you for all the loving relies. It is a true joy to hear the encouragment. I still have a ways to go but I'm looking at this new year as a new begining to continue to stay in the good habits, as much as possible.

Bless all of you. This is a picture that my DD put together for me last month. I don't know how it will post so thats why I didn't put it on the picture thread.

I am off to New Mexico for 10 days (leaving tomorrow night). I went to buy pants for the trip and guess what????? I bought a size 12!!! They are a little snug but they fit well. I am so happy with my weight loss. Yes, i have had the pain of a "too tight" band and the fear of a too loose band (gained back 12 lbs at one point) but overall..................I'm with you partner, we are doin' this!!!

I am only beginning my journey and you are an inspiration. Keep up the good work and thank you for sharing your journey. Your words gave the the idea to start my our journal, starting with why I want the surgery. I attend my 1st seminar on the 19th of this month and am hoping and praying I will be able to have the surgery. Again-Thanks! :clap2:

      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.
