But you'd do it all over again? I've had 2 csections, I'm wondering if its similar to that

You look great, love the tummy shot! What did you do for the incision scars (can't see them at all) or did they come off with the tuck?

I would. They say much worse ike 100 times than a C cause its a bigger incision, muscle repair, they cut out fat, Lipo and seperate tissue layers to do it. So worth it tho.

Congratulations! Amazing transformation. But the other nice thing is, it's really nice to get a perspective from someone who is almost 2 years out. The board has some lovely vets who are very generous and are available for us, but we don't have nearly as many of them as we have of the rest of us who are lost, confused, terrified newbies :)

So I hope you'll stay for a while and keep sharing your success and how you got there with us.

      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.
