I used to think about the # on the scale, or the size, I realized looking back at photos that neither of those were good. I think its more of what fits with you mentally and physically.

Everybody has their own ideal size. What I used to think was ideal, wasn't. When I look at where my ideal weight according to BMI is, it really is right on.

Think a size 10 would be cool, but I'll take whatever size gets me off all these meds

I just dont want double digits anymore. So anything less than a 10. Also, anything that doesnt have "x" in front of it. Once I get to those mini-goals, then I will pick a size and set a new goal LOL

I agree! I don't want to be double digits anymore! I've never not been double digits.

When I was at my goal weight (before children) I was a 8/9, shooting for that same size :)

I honestly don't even remember being below a plus size. I would like to be a size 10. I'm tall, and I think that would be a good size for my body frame.I can't wait to be able to shop in normal stores! Plus size clothes are too expensive for this chica!

As low as possible without being sickly. I want a buffer if I gain back a few pounds.

I'm a size 22 right now, I'd love to be a 12. I was a 12 when I got married and very happy at that size. Anything smaller would be the cherry on top.

      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.
