So this is crazy but my entire week 2 post op I complained and complained about the scale not moving. Sunday I get dressed for church and my slacks were soooo loose I couldn't keep them up. I ended up having to grab a pair of slacks I hadn't worn in about a year (because I had outgrown them) and they fit, but a little loose too! Cha-ching!!! Then I'm on my way to work and threw on my black flats... walked in the office and they're flapping off my feet. I wanna measure so bad but I'm gonna wait until my one month surgiversary.. little excited I'll admit!

Very exciting! I'm going thru that too. I'll be three weeks out on Friday and down 13 lbs, but I'm wearing a top I haven't been able to wear for 2 yrs. Jeans I couldn't wear a month ago slide right on. I'll take it!

This is such a cool feeling. Wait until you put some slacks on in the am that fit you nicely and by the afternoon, they're way tooooooo big....... :) I loved that...... Oh wait, your going to get a whole new wardrobe of clothes! Yayyyyyyy! I just buy the clothing that I absolutely love, no settling for items I really don't like. :) This is truly the best NSV!

      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.
