1. To say that I hit onderland this week!

2. That my hubby can wrap his arms around me and actually overlap his hands!

3. That for the first time in my adult life I could walk into Victoria secret and buy a bra!!! ( it's awesome btw!)

4. I can cross my legs while sitting like a lady. :)

5. I can actually wrap the towel around me when I get out of the shower lol

There are sooo many more but I thought this would be an amazing thread for the pre sleevers to read to help motivate them!! Help me out and add some more:)

That's great. I'm looking forward to the VS bra. That's probably one of my great milestones

It is definitely in my top ten milestones! I've been wearing big 'ol lane Bryant bras for almost my whole life! And the bra is worth the money!!!

It's amazing that...

1. I have lost 4 lbs while in maintenance.

2. I can get up off of the floor without using my hands.

3. My hubby can pick me up with ease during sex.

4. I only ate 5 pieces of my son's Halloween candy.< /p>

5. I don't NEED to eat junk and crap just because its there.

I feel liberated!!

Thats so wonderful and for someone who's nervous and has surgery in 2 days (11/15) it's very inspiring and gives me hope that one day I will be able to do all those wonderful things again!!

      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.
