Does anyone have a plan to treat theirselves when they reach their goal weight? I don't mean food or actually treat wise I just mean something to reward yourself with? For me I love tattoos and tigers. I have an idea to reward myself, one year from now, with a tiger tat as a back piece. I can't explain very well what it will look like but to me it will be something I want. Reason I want to wait until I loose some weight is I'm very self conscience and loosing the weight will hopefully help with it and getting a tattoo like this I want to show off. Sorry for long post but does anyone have a goal like this or had one?

surgery: April 24th~~~current weight loss 27 pounds

I bought a expensive top before surgery and my goal was to fit into it by the end of the summer (last year) and I did !!! I think rewarding your self is such a good thing that keeps you on track and its nice to set goals for yourself. Good luck :)

I'm going to Disney World!!!!!!

No seriously, I am. I went 2 years ago and took a look at the carts on space mountain and was worried I wouldn't fit in them. I did but it was TIGHT. And looking at the photos that they take during the ride, you could pick me out a mile away. Can't wait to start my journey on Wednesday!!

I think I'll visit friends in San Diego. I look forward to hanging out on the beach without "hanging out "quite so much.

      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.
