I can't believe that I'm 13 weeks and I can actually shop in the regular size stores and do not have to find the plus size! I feel really good about my weight loss right now and am looking forward to the next couple months cause I will be going to Puerto Rico on July 4th and that's when I will post my first pic!

Thanks pixie dust! Went from a size 22 to a 10

My heavens! My mouth just dropped open! Good for you!! I'm pre-op too! I have my surgery date for July 15th (I requested summer due to my kids being off school) but I had a really bad experience at the hospital I'm supposed to have my surgery at yesterday when I went to meet my surgeon for the first time, so now I'm researching another hospital in case I want to switch I have good insurance so I can do anywhere.

I want to post a great post like you one day soon too!!!!

Yes it's only 50 lbs but I lost a lot of inches and no I don't have a lot of skin hanging its loose but I've been working out everyday so that's what you have to do if you don't want to have all that hanging skin. Good luck with your surgery!

      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.
