I like that one!

I also like sitting in booths in steak houses and not having half of my belly laying on top of the table and the other half bulging underneath. In the old days it got even worse after slugging down peanuts, steak, rolls, salad, potatoes, Beans, green Beans, ice tea, and, of course, dessert. Now I split a steak with my wife, cut that in half and take home the other half of a half, hit a few beans and a bite or 2 of salad, and then sit around and watch the stretchy bellies pack it in. :huh::D

No regrets!!!! :)

Congratulations! I have admit that when I read the title of your submission, I was completely jealous! That's one of those milestones I hope to get to. I'm waiting for all the paperwork to get in order to move forward with having the surgery, but am very anxious to get it done and start beign able to Celebrate things like this. :0)

Nice...look how much room is there now! ;) I also love that the seatbelts are no longer strangling me...plenty of wiggle room these days!

Great job, that's truly a NSV for most people. I also hate the limp chairs that seem as if there made out of old driftewood that some restaurants use. I'm always afraid its just gonna shatter underneath me but not anymore!

      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.
