Wouldn't that be nice to choose ur spots. :) I wear skirts all the time n yes I find them longer. I wear mostly bluejean skirts to my calf n they are getting longer. Lol. They are so big at my waste but my big thunder thighs catch them. Lol

My thighs and my hips are my biggest with my upper arms a close third. But of course that is NOT where I am losing it. My boobs are gone and my waist is getting smaller and my husband says I'm losing my butt. I never had one to begin with. Just a lot of fat, glad to know I am at-least losing it there. I'm down to 279 from 336, so I'm happy. Would like to get to the 260s by thanksgiving but I'm happy with the results I am getting. And I hope everyone else is too. Don't be too hard on yourselves just think where you would b without the surgery! ;)

Oh trust me I have had some nice and not so nice conversations with my scale. My youngest daughter, she's 5, goes in the bathroom after I come out to see who I was talking to.

It's 10:00pmEST, thought I'd check out the new site. Yeah, had difficulty too.

Today I received my Fuzzy Navel nectar Protein from Vitacost! I can't wait to try it tomorrow morning for Breakfast. I find that when I have a liquid (protein shake or hot tea or whateva' liquid in the morning, it makes it easier to get in all of my liquids (which I struggle with). Well, signing out. Hope everyone has a great weekend :)

Hope all is well with you all I can't even open the app on my iPhone heck to get into the web to even see the site. Anyways here's my stats:

HW: 336lbs SW 8/6/13: 302lbs CW: 246lbs

I am feeling wonderful. I have a great support system an awesome man in my life and losing inches. Hoping I can lost at least 10lbs a month from here on out so I can be down to the 150s to 160s as my goal weight! I'm already seeing difference on my body. My back rolls are down to 1 instead of having 3 on each side of my back lol my thighs have gotten way smaller bit they are still frwaking huge lol and lost almost all my boobies!! I'm feeling really insecure about these :-/ my stomach has gotten smaller from a size 24/26 pants to an 18/20 and my shirts from a 2X/3X to a 1X/2X depending on the shirt... I am 10lbs shy of losing 100lbs in total and about 56lbs since surgery! I'm excited to lost about 100more lbs! Time effort and hard work will pay off!

I just figured out the changes that happened in the old rnytalk, so here I am!

I'm 15 weeks out from surgery today and feeling great! My weight loss has definitely slowed, but I bought a treadmill and weight system last weekend which is helping me kick it up a notch. It is so awesome to be able to work out without feeling like I'm going to die any minute.!

I'm attaching a progress pic. Middle is pre-surgery, 298lbs. Left is 1 1/2 wks post-op, 280lbs. Right is a week ago, just over 230lbs.

Join me, August peeps, and show us your progress!!!

      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.
