Hate to say this, but I wear black all the time at my goal weight. Always said "If I every can get skinny I will shop at White House Black Market." Hmm, looking down I have on a top and pants of theirs. Now I just don't have to avoid those colors or even better, horizontal stripes or belts. Oh how I love my sleeve.

You are going to look great in everything, no matter what the color!

I was always secretly jealous of women who could "invest" in a few "signature" pieces of clothing. That high end jacket, or a really great skirt that goes with everything. Of course, they are the same size all of the time, which makes spending a little extra possible sine it will fit from year to year.

Instead I have just bought clothes to "get by" on. That makes up almost my entire wardrobe, even my nicer work clothes. Less expensive, sometimes cheap, lots of black, different sizes, some not very flattering but they fit at the time.

Marquel - You are going to have so much fun when you get ready to shop! What do you think your new favorite colors are going to be?

iegal - Exactly! Ann Taylor and White House, Black Market.

I love red but I'm hoping to have every color. I think black may always dominate but will definitely venture out. :)

      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.
