I'm not scared of the surgery itself. Is or has anyone else been worried about losing weight in the places you don't want to? I've always had a heavy posterior. I want to lose it but not toooo much

Legs and butt were the first to go. This has never happened on any other weight loss I have had.

I was afraid of that. Other times I lost weight, my stomach would go first. I'll definitely be doing the squat challenge

with me, it started in my face & worked its way down...I guess everybody is different. Maybe you'll get lucky...

I am pre-op but anytime I've lost weight on any other diet, the first things to deflate were "my girls." :( Truthfully, I'm okay with them going down a bit but hubby not that happy about that. I just want to look proportionate all over!

I am losing from my face down....my girls are not as full now...much more comfortable. The last to go for me are my gigantic thighs! That is my historical weight loss pattern I have been yo-yoing so long I don't believe my descent the 100th time around will be any different.

I've lost a lot in my face, booty and thighs but where I really need/want to lose it is in my tummy! Uhhh, it's losing too but not as much as the rest!

      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.
