Yes it is. I'm thinking about how I'm going to look at 125lbs since I never remember being this weight. The smallest I been was 135lbs

Its not abnormal... I think it is on all of our minds all the time. Its a good thing that you can think positive and give yourself encouragement to say that you are going to look awesome in the months to come. Before surgery I saw this really cute top in the store, it was a bit pricy but I bought it anyway... its my inspiration to fit in it by the end of the summer. I had my surgery on 4/9 and down 30 lbs so far, my BMI was 37 to start and I have a total of 80 lbs to loose.... 50 more to go -- wooohooo :)

John, I asked DL the same question in a private message. He gave me his reason but I still think of him as a secrete agent CIA. But I was way off. Haha

Hey DL why don't you have a picture?

Hey John! Well, I'll tell you the same thing I told Ms. Mignon. Never been much of a picture kind of guy and really don't have anything current since I've lost the weight. Definitely on my to do list to get a pic up but my dance card has been pretty busy lately and I haven't had time to get it done. Coming - I promise!

      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.
