I went to my first yoga class today, firstly I was thrilled that I could follow along somewhat successfully. More so however it was the first time I ever felt comfortable being in an exercise class. I was able to focus on the yoga and not obsess about how fat I was and how I didn't fit in. It was an amazing class and I will be going back tomorrow :)

DMA - remember me??? we already talked above - so i'm hijacking for a minute ok ;)

Hoder,

as GypsyQueen correctly said NSV is a non-scale victory

ie not needing a seat belt extender on the airplane for the 1rst time :)

buying an article of clothing in a smaller size :)

ok - back to our regularly scheduled program............ ;)

Gals, my NSV today was canceling my pedi appointment and doing my toenails myself. I'm three months out and only 36lbs down but I can already bend over and do my own toes. It was a very satisfying non scale victory (nsv).

HA! It's great that you can paint your own toes but I will NOT be sharing this post with my husband! Mani's an Pedi's are my only "extra's" and I'm not willing to give them up! :)

      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.
