Today I went through some old clothes that use to be too small and now they are either too big or fit perfectly! It was very exciting!

My dad was very nervous about me having the surgery. Today he was having a senior moment calling for me in the other room and couldn't remember my name at first...and called me skinny Minnie instead... Made me smile.

It got cool today....I tried on every pair of pants I could find....they all fell off me! I finally found a pair of size 14 jeans that fit. Got my hair done Friday and went to a meeting today and got a " damn, you fine"....wow..haven't felt that good in a long time. I was also told I look like my sister, the size 8 one! When I was a size 8 , people knew we were sisters, but it hasn't happened in 13 years ! I'm doing this for my health, but the outward physical perks sure are nice!

I was able to fulfill one wish. For years I have always wanted a Victoria Secret bra. They are just so beautiful. I ordered one a few weeks ago and it fit like it was made just for me! I have since ordered 5 more! Love it!

A few years ago I went to the boardwalk and tried going on one of the rides but to my disappointment I was too big it could not close. I went last weekend and fit fine with extra room! It's the little things that make you happy :)

      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.
