Recommended Posts

Thank you guys so much! The other nice thing is those shoes were too tight for me but now they fit perfectly. I've had them for years and couldn't bring myself to give the. Away coz they're so cute!

I think I'm finally starting to believe that I might hit goal some day. I'm obviously a slow learner <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

You know before surgery I'd look at other people's pics and wonder if I would ever get there. I was sure I'd fail. I STILL worry about that. Every morning I think, maybe today is the day I'll stop losing weight. I do stall/pause a lot, but it's unbelievable. It's like nothing we've all ever done before to lose weight.

You'll be here before you know it and if you're like me, you will have such a thankful heart. Hope is a wonderful thing my friend.

Start putting your face on your pictures because your confidence needs to catch up with your progress. Remember how inspiring others peoples pics are? YOU are the inspiration and motivation for many of us . Keep up the great job!

Did my husband pay you to say this?? He was so mad at me that I cut my head off. My son said where's you head?? And I told him I chopped it off. How else did he think I'd lost 40 lbs? :)

You're right. I know you're right. I will work on it. all I see is my double chin and my uneven skin tone and my thinning hair.

Confidence is 90% in our faces! I agree with the other poster, don't chop off your head! Be proud of your accomplishments and flash the beautiful smile along with the happiness of being in that dress!! I'm sure you looked beautiful and nobody would if noticed anything you are worried they would see. ;)

How did I miss this?!? Now I get the title of your thread about NOT chopping off your head! :face palm: Looking great! Cute shoes, too. Want my address? Your husband is welcome to shop for me, too. :)

Don't encourage him! He's replaced cooking with shopping I think. I'm patiently waiting for the addiction to die. In the meantime, mysterious packages of things we don't need keep arriving at the house.

      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.
