I never really noticed my arms before, but yes they are smaller.

Thanks everyone I sometimes feel like I cant see my weight loss until I look at pics. It is a great idea to track your progress.

Glad for you!!! I had my fiance take pics of me. I sometimes feel like I cant see what others see, if you no what i mean. I didnt think i was getting that small. I do notice a huge diffrence in my waist. I was in a 22-24 pants and recently bought 14-16 pants. My boobies did shrink a little also. I also have one pic the night before surgery of me and my daughter of a close up of our faces, huge diffrence in my face. I never realized how chunky my face was before.

Boy was that difficult to get loaded! You can see my photo from the day of surgery my husband took at the hospital and today at the office :)

Everyone keeps asking me what I'm eating...haven't touched the candy!!!! Had a slice of pot roast and some peas and carrots for lunch...coffee and a few cubes of low fat low sodium cheese this morning.

So far so good....:)

      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.
