That's gonna change, trust me.😁 You'll find yourself taking more selfies over the next year or two than a 13 year old school girl on social media. My guy friends still troll my Instagram and bust my chops about it..

This is so true...NEVER thought I'd be a selfie person. Now I'm obnoxious and constantly ask people to take my picture. LOL We're proud and showing off! Flaunt it ladies and gents!!!!!

3 more months before surgery ? Thebsurgery makes it so much easier ! But U have to live the steps - the Water , the Protein , the walking , the exercise , the Vitamins . I attacked it like it was my job . Was methodical about journaling everything and I didn’t lose hair, I felt great and only have a had a few instances where I had to throw up . It’s a lifestyle change , sure, but it is SO worth it ! Good luck !

It is truly amazing . The albatross around my neck is gone! I do have to think and plan more - I bring little things of yogurt and cottage cheese and string cheese with me and buy some Protein Snacks, but the organization I now have to do is really worth it . I make sure I drink a lot of Water but after 7 months the lifestyle and patterns are engrained . You will do great ! Just commit urself that for the first 3 months u will be perfect , then the habits are there !

You will do it . Just take it day by day . Try to get your 8000 steps in now and try to drink ur Water as wel. I also took Biotin 6months before my surgery so my hair wouldn’t fall out and I took the chewy Multi Vitamins as well . U have 3 months before surgery - prepare ! I also started drinking my Protein Shakes in the am (I mix with Decaf hazelnut coffee ) it’s great in the am

      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.
