I've got collar bones!! And I moved my bra hooks in a row and I can cross my legs again comfortably. I'm so happy to be getting my legs back. I always had great legs from dancing for 15+ years.

I love my collar bones! I keep touching them to find out if they are always there! Lol. When I run at the gym there is a mirror across the gym and I keep looking at my collar bones and thinking I am seeing things! I love them.

My sister in law gave me a size large summer dress and I told her it wouldn't fit and after a good debate, she had me try it on and it fit perfectly.

Right after surgery I thought I only had 4 incisions because looking in the mirror I couldn't see the 5th incision because it was near my belly button that was covered by my dropping stomach. Today I looked in the mirror today and to my surprise I saw the incision without moving my stomach around!!

-Today at the doctor, I fit into a regular gown, not the fat one. Also they used the regular blood pressure cuff.

-I can look down and see my girlie parts whereas before they were hidden by my gut.

-My collar bones too!

-When walking I notice that my upper thighs barely rub together anymore.

I have been doing a 5k training program since about 4 weeks out, but I finally got in 4 one minute run intervals as part of my 3 miles tonight!!! 5k on Saturday night and another on August 10. If you have a Fleet Feet store in your town check out their No Boundaries program. It is a great way to incorporate exercise and meet some great motivators!

It's been sooo hot! I bought a bathing suit and went to the beach for a swim with my daughter tonight. Cooled me right off! I haven't done that in ten years! :-)

Don't really like the bathing suit but it fit. There's slim pickings in the stores right now on them. Back to school stuff is out already...

Ok this is a strange one. I have a speaker in my car that is blown and has been for awhile. It's in my center console. Up until now my butt muffled it so I couldn't hear it as much but now its the only thing I hear. So yea!! that I can hear it but boooo!! that I now have to buy a new speaker. Whatever tho, I'll spend $50 on a new speaker and be skinny. 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.
