So one of the neighbors several houses away walked up behind me in the driveway as I was talking to my husband. When I turned around he gasped and said I thought Tim had got divorced because I kept seeing this skinny' date=' young chick down here. Didn't realize the hot chick was you. Made me laugh--my husband said no I've had her for 35 years and the hot chick is all mine![/quote']l

I was going thru old stuff at my mom's looking for a coat to wear this winter since everything I have is too big. I found my American Eagle peacoat from high school. Had a patch in the pocket from an ice hockey tournament in 2002 in the pocket, so I guess that's the last place I wore it.

Not only did it fit, it even buttoned!

I was looking in the closet in the basement and found my step-daughters fitted leather coat her mom bought her 8 years ago. I remember she hated it, never wore it, and when we moved she had it in the goodwill pile. Well, so glad I kept it because now this size 10, really sharp leather jacket fits me!!!!! I'm not even going to tell her. I'm just going to wear it an see if she notices lol!

This weekend was my daughters 5th birthday party. Many extended family and friends were there that haven't seen me since surgery on July 1st. All day people kept commenting how great I looked. It was amazing. I've lost 86 pounds so far. Then today I saw my father in law who has been out of the country for 6 months and he didn't recognize me from behind! I swear this has been the greatest weekend ever :)

Last Sunday I did not sit on the coach and veg while watching football. My daughter and I went out and played. Then the whole family went shopping at an outdoor outlet mall. I dont shop because shopping is evil and it seperates me from my money however I was able to walk around and enjoy the time with the family.

      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.
