Thanks Everyone for the kind comments! I'm only 23, I used to feel much older being so overweight. Now I think I finally starting to look and feel my age! In response to the question, I just take my weight loss one day at a time. I listen to EVERYTHING my nutritionist tells me, and actually do follow mostly everything. In my program, we don't count calories. The main goal is ensuring 60-80 grams of Protein each day. I don't eat many carbs at all, and focus on lean meats and veggies primarily. I also am very active as a nurse, and love spinning classes at my local gym. I truly appreciate all of the kind remarks, they are so encouraging! Also, I'm 5'3"

My jaw dropped looking at your before & after pics!!! Oh my heavens, I just can't get over how absolutely GORGEOUS you look! You were beautiful before too, but now ~ WOW!! You really do look younger & you're kind of giving me a glimpse of what I could look like someday! I weigh 4 pounds less than your highest weight & we're the same height, so I could look very much like you (well, except for your beautiful youthful face & my ugly OLD face) when I hit onederland too one day!!! God Bless you!!

      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.
