I am also on the steak a lot. Goes down like a dream, much better than chicken, so weird.

Happy birthday, Dori! And congrats on that awesome loss!

Ok so you guys have really inspired me I am joining the gym tomorrow! It's the first day of spring here in Africa and a good time to start, I'd say ;/)

Excited but also nervous! Dont want it to be a failure (like all the other times before).

Dry and flaky but hopefully will help with the scarring. Glad yours is getting better. Yay for joining a gym..I think it gives a bit more motivation. Yay things are going good 4 u!!!

I don't think my husband quiet believed me. I took pics and he was shocked. I also showed him later that night more that came out. I've stopped washing my hair often to try to prevent the extra loss. I haven't used heat such as a dryer or flat Iron in a month and just walk around looking like medusa. As a fat girl my hair was my "beauty" feature. It's weird. It's betrayed me :)

Are you taking the Biotin? I feel like a medicine cabinet with all the Vitamins and now adding Biotin to the mix. But my hair stylist said my hair wasn't shedding as much as it was before I started taking it a month ago. I had really healthy hair before too.

Happy Belated birthday, Dori! You are amazing, I hope it was great!

      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.
