Not Weight Goal #1 Accomplished (pics included)



Recommended Posts

I purchased a pair of hot pink pants size 30 (Juniorish) back in April when I made the mental decision about the sleeve. Since my surgery May 8 I tried them on here and there but not too often. When I first tried them on I could get them past my knees and hung them on the doorway into my closet. There were days I though about returning them as they cost $39.99. I sometimes felt stupid by wasting the money and letting them just hang around. I probably tried them on at least 10 times and sometimes I noticed progress and sometimes I didn't until this morning.

I had a Tummy Tuck over eight years ago and it been holding tight even when i gain weight. Now that I am loosing I just ned to work on tightening the love handles. These pants ride a little low and I am not a fan of butt crack.

      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.
