Boots ~ an NSV!!!



Recommended Posts

Yesterday, I was shopping at the mall. I wanted to get a pair of boots to wear with a denim skirt that I hadn't been able to wear in four years. (Yay!) Typically, with boots, I either need to buy them in a plus-sized store so the calves are wider or buy the kind that slouch down.

Well, I saw a pair of boots in JC Penney that I loved, but figured would never fit at they wet to just below he knee in tight leather. For whatever reason, I tried them on. AND THEY FIT!!! I could zip them all the way up my calf!! I couldn't believe it. It's been years and years since I could wear boots like that! I came home and modeled them for my husband and couldn't stop dancing around in them.

Have I mentioned that I love my band? 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.
