So excited because I just went shopping for the first time since surgery. I bought a size 18 jeans and XL tops. I was in a 24 pant and 2/3xl depending in the top. I know I won't be in this size for long but needed some clothes and I'm happy with my progress!

I've lost 56 now since surgery and I'm 13 weeks out. I haven't seen my dr in a while but I think were all around the same give or take a few pounds.

I hope that's not too fast! Also, it feels really weird to say that lol

Hardest part of this since the Protein shake liquid phase turned me off to shakes...not being able to drink with my meals.

Also, very jelly of those going down sizes. I tried on some clothes this weekend and I am in such a weird body shape phase that everything looked awful. I just look weird lately.

I wear a lot of skirts with elastic waists and I had to role mine up today because my stomach and butt are not as big so they don't pull them up so much anymore and I was stepping on my skirt this morning. It's a good thing it's just kinda strange, also my capris are also not at my calves anymore either they are getting longer too. Funny how our bodies are losing it, I wish I could lose it where I wanted to. Lol!

      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.
