Congrats! I went to Six Flags about a month and a half ago and was still kind of freaking out about being too heavy - but I wasn't and I had a great time! You look lovely BTW. Keep up the awesome work!

WOW! I hadn't ever noticed that I wouldn't fit in a roller coaster cuz up until about 2 yrs ago, I was deathly afraid of them. NEVER went on them. I was the jacket holder for my first husband. He loved them.

Now I'm on my 2nd husband (1st one died) and he's a coaster fan too. He started me on the coasters at DLand 2 yrs ago, Knotts berry Farm 2 yrs ago and I graduated to Magic Mountain last summer. They still terrify me but I also get an exhilaration from them.

Congrats on being able to do one of the little joys in life that we used to miss out on. It's those that make all we go thru worth it!

      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.
