I used to dread shopping, I still hold some of that go back for a bigger six fear. But soon I'll have no choice as everything I have is falling off... Lol

My eyes popped when I found a large was sliding off! I'm two months out and down 60 lbs! I know this sounds silly, but I can't get over how tiny my wrists have gotten! Funny part is, I know my ex husband is kicking himself now. I just hope I can enjoy shopping once again. Too many years of hating it. And I always grab things way too big. It's like when you cut your hair, and take a shower. You always end up with Shampoo sliding down your face because you're used to having long hair. It's all a huge adjustment. And as for swimwear, I think I could be 110 and still scared out of my mind to try doing that again. Sad thing is, I'm a huge fan of swimming as I used to be a lifeguard and an even bigger fan of rollerblading. I'm bouncing back with no extra skin, but old fears and mindsets are going to take a long time to fix.

I'm 3days out now. But before the surgery' date=' I bought a few pieces that looked great and I had to have. Lol. Since I work at a clothing store part time, I won't be spending a lot.[/quote']

How are you feeling? I am (as I type this) sitting in the waiting room waiting to be called back for my EGD. I am getting nervous about the post op pain of when it comes time for the actual surgery and recoop time. Any comments?

I know what you mean! I am only 2 1/2 months out from surgery and am down 57 lbs. I figured now that I'm 5 sizes smaller I'll love to shop too. But for some reason I keep going to the larger sizes not believing I can fit into the smaller sizes. So I know for sure that it's going to take me some time to adjust.

Way to go on your loss! Hopefully our brains will catch up with our bodies soon!

Response to Landensmommy10

Despite 3 calls to my insurance company asking for the requirements for WLS, they still did not give me the correct answer. So after meeting with the insurance coordinator Wed, I was smart to start the 6 month pcp diet 2 months ago, and actually had my 3rd weigh in on Thur, so thats a bonus. Since Dr is in Pittsburgh and I am in Erie (2.5 hour drive) Dr said its ok to have my Pulm, Card, sleep testing and bloodwork done in Erie. I called to make those appointments and they require (not my insurance) me to get referrals from my Dr. Called surgeons office back, they told me the referral has to come from my PCP, now what sense does that make? GRRRR, but I called PCP and they will make the appointments for me, thank goodness. So all is going great. Looking like Nov/Dec-ish for the surgery, which I think is perfect. I have only told the mother in law and 1 BFF, so everyone else will get the "It's my new years diet" story. LOL

      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.
