You look great! I have to ask... Our stats are basically the same' date=' but your shape looks way better than mine. How tall are you? I am 5'6 and at 230 I feel like I still have a huge belly, but you don't at all.[/quote']

Thank you! I am 5'8". I still have a belly and that dress hides it well. Currently wearing 18 in most depending on brand i got into 16s recently at lane Bryant. I hold my weight fairly well.

I'm 5'6 and I was 230 at my highest and had a belly. I'm now 195 and the belly is going away slowly. I posted some pictures in my progress at 2.5 mos thread that might show you the difference. Not much longer now for you :)

I'm sitting here in my hotel room in Las Vegas waiting for my hubs to get ready and I found these 2 pics. One is from an ugly sweater xmas party I had in 2011. I was probably around my heaviest of 332 give or take. The close ups are a year apart. Last October and today. Currently still 234. My goal is 165.

I just can't believe where I am today. This has been a ride. I know it's not all about looks however I have to say I'm Rockin this sleeve. Sitting here crying. Just can't believe it.

You look amazing!!

      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.
