You look great. Younger and well rested. It is funny how we see ourselves. Strangers can see the difference and you know we will tell you the truth. You look great enjoy your accomplishment.

Yeah, the hat! It was Easter Sunday and I found that hat. It matched my watermelon spring coat. The hat was $300 though, so it stayed in the shop after my friend snapped the pic!

I hope I look half as good as you. I've been worried that I will look older. You definitely look significantly younger!

I do not think that us possible for me. If you have a low BMI when you start then may be so. I hope i can help you with these tips. You can start a new thread and ask on the forum area. Welcome to VST

      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.
