I can only speak for me' date=' since I'm 48, I'm sure this was coming later, but they are hanging down and are flat! I rarely go without a bra now, even to bed! Since they were mostly fat, and the fat is now gone, I guess that's what I'll have. Trying to workout at the gym to firm them up, with the rest of me that's "going south".[/quote']

Same here sister! ;) I read that October 13 is National No Bra Day. Aint gonna happen here; NOBODY needs to see this!

I am no longer obese, I am now overweight!! (whoever thought I would be happy to be overweight ?! lol)

I went to buy sneakers, I use to be a size 11w...I am now a size 7, and i looked at my daughters sneakers...and fit them too...and she's a 6 1/2

I finally know what a collar bone, chin bone and waist bone feels like and can finally see them :)

use to be in a size 32 jeans now in a size 13....(lately the 13's are getting bigger but I refuse to buy to much clothes until my weight is steady)

I use to be size 46DD, then went to size 32d and now this bra is starting to get loose and soon i will be stuffing my bra at the age of 40 because my girls are looking like prunes...lol

I also use to have a nice booty but now that is going away :( thank goodness for butt pads..lol :)

overall I am happy with my progress...my assets are leaving but as a woman I know how to dress it up...Victoria Secret here i come...i think lol

congrats everyone on your progress!!

How is it I am loosing inches but not pounds

It is part of the stall process. I lost all my inches when I was not losing weight. It is like your body catches up to the weight loss. I am 15 months post op and people keep saying I am losing weight. I tell them no it is all inches. Personally inches are more rewarding - and more fun. When you lose inches you have a new excuse to go shopping. I bought a new dress today and felt like a million bucks!

      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.
