It's a great feeling, although I wish I didn't weigh less than my hubby (in the sense that I wish he weighed much less, not me much more!).

That is wonderful! I been with my husband for 11 years too, it will be 12 this August(minus the 2 and 1/2 year we dated) I have always weighed more than him, and even though I felt horrible about it, he loved me anyway at 480lbs. I'm so happy now that I'm losing and on my way to being lighter than him. I am now at 394, I'm lighter now than I was when I met him :) Congrats on your loss!!

Congrats! When I went shopping for new jeans last month, my daughter pulled an 18. I tried them on to humor her and was shocked that they fit (I was replacing 26's)! Literally speechless for several minutes. And now they're loose! I think this is one of our rewards for taking this serious step - the joy of seeing tangible progress. Keep it up!

      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.
