Didn't realize that I had lost so much hope



Recommended Posts

I put an "in between " pic in my original post, (third one down), about my much bragged about wife. Sorry if I gush a lot about her.

When she comes out on the lanai bringing me coffee in the morning looking like a fashion model I want to pinch myself to make sure I am not dreaming. But I don't because if I am dreaming I don't want to wake up.

My wife saved a short and halter top outfit that she wore when we were honeymooners. She brought it out on occasion with the picture of her in it during her many failed diets to motivate herself. She never lost enough.

40 years later' date=' she is finally back into it, thanks to weight loss surgery and her own discipline.

She be lookin fine! ;)

Edit: Here's the pictures:

I went out today and decided to treat myself to a new pair of jeans. I was wearing a snug 20, but got a size 18. I tried on a16, but it was to tight...BUT I got them on, snapped and zipped!

I am missing sizes. I am down 2 sizes but have nothing but one pair of jeans until I get down 2 more sizes. Then it's another 2 sizes after that where I can wear tons of old stuff.

      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.
