Great job! I'll say from experience that you're about to get slammed with tons of congrats from everyone, but also many requests for how you're eating, how maintenance is treating you, etc. So be prepared to share a bit more about how you're doing and your method for success. Everyone always wants to know how you did it. :)

You've done great, enjoy the results of your hard work!

As for loose skin it's not too bad...At my heaviest i weighed about 415 lbs so of course there is going to be some mainly due to the fact i would yo-yo 100 lbs down 150lbs up...prior to surgery. So i still have a little bit of a saggy belly...Not that bad..and a little flabby arms...Nothing I can't live with and nothing clothes can't cover up. I may later done the road get a Tummy Tuck or something but it hasn't bothered me bad enough to the point where i want to . It's not like i plan on putting on a 2 piece any time soon and strutting my stuff..lol :P i am healthy and happy that's all i need

      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.
