Hey everybody I haven't been on here on Months and I missed all of you guys! :) okay just a quick recap story about my WLS Journey. Well when I first started my highest weight was 299 when I got my surg it was Aug 15 2012 I waited so long to get my surg it too me 2 yrs to get it when I finally did I rejoyced! I had thee worst problems with insurance and motivation and depression and it was just a mess! Lol eventually it all got straighten out and I finally got the courage to actually go thru with the surg. Okay so I did Everything that my doc wanted me to do! He told me To loose weight in order for him to even touch me BOOM I did it! Now it wasn't a whole lot it was like 5 pounds or so but I still lost something! So I did that they wanted me to start a Vitamin BOOM I did that they wanted me to practice separating eating and drinking BOOM! Well that one took a long while to master but once I had the surg it was hella easy because u literally can't do both! Lol but anyway after my surg I kinda had probs because of the nausea and tolerance to some stuff but in time that settled too..in DEC '12 I think I was around 240 -30 ish ballpark jan it was like 220s and now it's FEB and I'm feeling GREAT and sexy and my scars don't hurt anymore (thank goodness) lol but I've honestly been a lil busy be and Camera Junkie! All I do is take pics now lmao Im so proud of myself for loosing these 80 pounds I'm currently at 215 or 19 one of those because my scale and the hospital scale is kinda different but either way I'm OUT OF THE 220s!!!!!!! Yay me!! I haven been this small since middle school! But the current goal weight is 160 right now hopefully bye summer I will reach it. I'm doin baby steps and making REALISTIC goals for myself and I really think that's key though but I'm not gonna make you read anymore because I'm rambling now lol but here my pics :)

      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.
