I went to the beach today in a bathing suit and had a wonderful time. I focused on me and didn't worry about my size.

Oh and my bathing suit is falling off of me. I ordered one from landsend in a size 14 and hope it gets here soon!

I'm in a 14 bottom, but a 20 top.....must get rid of boobs!

Cleaned out my closet. 8 full size garbage bags to my sister and mom. 3 more to go to goodwill. My husband laughed and said no more hunting for hangers! More to go in about a month!

I had three big lawn garbage bags full!! As soon as I get where I want to be I'm going to have fun filling it back up!!

Went to the Water park today and I didn't feel like the biggest person there! I even went down 2 slides, though I don't think I'll be doing THAT again LOL...I'll stick with the wave pool and the lazy river.

Yesterday was dress down day at work. The jeans I've been wearing were getting too baggy so I tried on everything in my jeans drawer. Most of them were two baggy! Only two fit - and I hadn't been able to fit in those for three years! :-)

I've been bringing down smaller and smaller clothes from my attic. I've already gotten rid of bunches of jeans and slacks, some without even getting a chance to wear them. I have clothes down to sz14 - if I get lower than that I'm going to have to make my husband do a few side jobs so I can go shopping! :-)

The future is looking bright for the first time in years...

      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.
