Sorry, can't do it in sentence! LOL

- being happy again.

- being able to sit out at the campfire with my boys.

- clothes shopping and buying 10s and 12s...smaller than when I was a teenager!!

- feeling sexy for my husband again.

- reveling in becoming a strong, healthy woman!

Losing weight has impacted *every* aspect of my life and it's all because I had the courage and desperation to get the lapband.

food is just another activitity in my life, food used to be the biggest activity in my life.

I would have to go the the store EVERYDAY so I would have my stash of candy and Cookies . I would hide them (from shame) and would forget sometimes where I put them. I would eat it all that night.

      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.
