Of course we rock!! Lol. I'm just glad so many of us are still on here. It's great to have people at the same stage. :-)

I agree! I don't always have time to post but I read every thing as it comes into my email and it is always encouraging to see that I am not alone!

scale broke a week or so ago when our apartment flooded, but at last check I have gone from 320 right before surgery to 265. I have gone from 4x & sz 28 or 30 to 1x & 2× (depending) & 22 pants.

I am still struggling to get my fluids in & just this past week started working out a little.

You guys look awesome!

Lisa holy cow you've lost so much already!

I keep touching my hip bones. They make me feel like it's working!

However I saw myself in the mirror on Friday at work and realized I still have a LONG way to go. I'm ok with that. Actually it's good I realize not to get complacent with where we are now.

Go team Nov! Corny huh? Lol

My best friend and I went shopping yesterday because I really wanted a cheap winter coat, all of mine needed to be replaced this year but I didn't want to spend the money knowing they weren't going to fit for long and now they look ridiculous. Anyway, I found one at Old Navy that was cute and SUPER cheap, immediately I grabbed the XXL and thought it was perfect... good thing I had her with me because she immediately said NO! Try on a smaller size... I thought she was nuts for a sec but I went ahead and tried on the XL and it fit perfectly! I almost cried!!! 2 1/2 months ago I was a 24 and that was snug.... sometimes I'm thrown off guard when I realize it really is working

      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.
