I have a new one - I got a new outfit for my birthday next week - i got skinny pants, boots, a new sweater & a vest. For the first time in so so so long - I think I look pretty good- the pants & shirt are a size smaller & this is the first thing that I have bought since my surgery just over a month ago. Most of my clothes are getting a little baggy & I didn't want to buy myself any clothes because I know I'll be losing more weight. So my moms like I think you should have a new outfit for your birthday from me - yay! And I'm going to be 45 lol! I'm going to post a picture on Friday & y'all can tell me what you think - thanks everyone & all of you are doing AMAZING!!!!

Not sure if this is really an NSV, but I'm calling it one anyway! ;) Walking into the grocery store I saw a reflection in the glass door...a 'normal', healthy looking person. It honestly took me a second to realize it was ME I was seeing.

I love these posts!!! I can't wait to ride on a carnival ride with my kids. My NSV's so far are: Being able to wear an XL shirt that my son gave me 2 yrs ago (He kept asking why I hadn't worn it and thought I didn't like it. I didn't have the heart to admit that I couldn't wear it!), having a coworker tell me I needed new jeans because I'm almost mooning her in the old ones every time I bend over, having to sell brand new winter clothes that I bought last year because they are way too big and being able to complete the HipHop Abs workout DVD with my 8 year old daughter without passing out!

Lol I couldn't believe I fit my butt in it lol. I was telling my nephew that I might not be able to ride and I asked the guy if he thought I could fit and he said yes but I didn't believe him but I decided to try and it did lol. It was AMAZING to me...

MandaMom, it is hard getting used to the new You! I found it easier by taking pics of myself. I see it more there. Before when I saw myself in pics I hated me, I still have a ways to go, but I don't hate the new me anymore! :)

I just kept telling myself well if I can't I can't....I tried to hype myself up so I wouldn't be embarrassed. It was awesome to feel that thrill feeling again. I haven't felt that in about 7 or 8 years.

Another NSV today is I have a outline of my elbow! Y'all are the only ones I can tell that to and have someone be excited for me lol. No one else really understands all these little things I'm seeing haha...they just are happy for me if I said pigs fly lol! Today I was putting on my makeup and for some reason I looked at my arm and could see my elbow instead of just it being round.

      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.
