Earlier today my husband ran into a good friend of mine. Not BFF, but a close friend. This is how the conversation went:

Her: So how's she feeling?

Him: oh she's doing real good. She lost a few lbs, been exercising, and no complications- real good.

Her: SO DOES SHE REGRET THIS YET?

Ummm..... WTH!?! :(

But on a happy note-- I retired my first pair of jeans today. :)

Just yesterday a lady at my work is so jealous of my weight loss that she started telling people that Ive been taking HCG and limiting my calories to 500 a day. She doesnt know about the surgery and frankly its none of her business because she is a huge gossip but my point is that jealous people can be so mean and hurtful.

How about being happy for someone improving their health and being happy with themselves. What a concept. Hold you head high my dear and screw the haters!

i understand. at our fourth of july get together, my sister in law was like "so, it's basically Atkins right?" "you could have done that without surgery." oh what the hell ever! good thing the rest of my family is supportive.

Some people are so very unhappy with their own lives that they can't be happy for anyone else. So sad. Just remember when you are feeling on top of the world not to let anyone get you down.

I was pretty upset when I heard this, but I'll forgive her. She's had a pretty ugly history with her weight as well (she drops lbs by starving herself after her fiancé calls her fat)... So, I'll let her be green if she wants to.

I'm happy with me! :)

Shes just jelous you keep going and keep burning her ass, isnt it funny how your friends all of a sudden are so curious in what we are doing and keep tabs better than we do on our weight while we are loosing? Cause god forbid we should look better than them, we were the safe fat friend. Now what the heck are they gonna do? Dont be hurt by this use it for motivation. People are ignorant.

      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.
