My surgery date & weight were 11/5/12 & 330lbs, I'm 5' 4", I'm down to 222lbs today. Even though I have a ways to go yet, I already feel like a new person. So thankful for this second chance at a healthier, longer life.

Hard to admit this but here goes:

Weight at start of the insurance approval process on Nov 1, 2012 was - 453 lbs

I've always been heavy, about 350 for a long time. Couldn't believe I had gotten that high, but limited mobility due to a serious car accident in 2010 and Depression did a number on me and eating was my distraction and comfort I guess.

Weight at date of surgery on June 4, 2013 - 371 pounds. 82 lbs lost in 8 months pre surgery

Current weight 305 lbs - 66 pounds lost since surgery 4 months ago.

Total lost since starting all this - 148 pounds with much more to go but I'm determined!!

      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.
