It could happen sooner than you think!!

I'm NOWHERE NEAR my goal, but I already move around soooo much better. I've lost about 70lbs since I started with pre-op stuff and I already notice a major improvement! I don't have to struggle to get up anymore. Yesterday I went shopping all day, while wearing TERRIBLE shoes for walking, and had zero pain, wasn't tired at the end of the day and wasn't constantly looking for somewhere to sit down!! I can't wait for it to get better as I lose more and more! :)

Hang in there, everyone! You can start to reap the rewards of weight loss well before you get to your goal! Good luck!

1 .cross my legs gracefully (not like two hams are wrestling)

2. Walk in stilettos for longer than 10 minutes

3.play with my grand kids and not be winded.

4.wear a bathing suit a little more revealing.

5.go up a few flight of stairs and glisten instead of sweating bullets

6.sit where ever I feel like it and not worry if I will fit

7. Stand next to my hubby for a photo and him not look like a floating head over my shoulder.

I have so much more but this is a start lol

I LOVE this list. I can't wait to do all these things. I hate going to the mall and sitting on a bench to watch my kiddo play in the play area. I am such a kid myself. I wanna play too!!

And the dresses! I HATE going to church now. For no reason other than all I have are long maxi dresses, because all of my cute short skirts don't fit. And I refuse to buy more clothes at this size. :(

      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.
