One of the best changes from loosing weight is actually looking forward to parties again. About a month ago a male college friend who I hadn't seen in over a decade had a death in his family. I knew there would be a lot of old friends at the wake that I had not seen since loosing over 70 pounds. Well let me tell you that was the first wake I actually looked forward to going to. Hope that's not too crass.

Is it weird that I totally understand? I'm running into people I haven't seen on PURPOSE. Anywhere I possibly can. My reasoning was when I went home - no (from high school) would say - oh she is successful or not divorced or doesn't have 3 baby daddy or even - wow she got the hell out of here and moved to NYC. No matter how successful I was I would be the girl who got fat. Now I'm the girl who moved away and did something. Because I'm not the girl who got fat anymore. We should all enjoy the praise because this is hard work! We deserve it!

      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.
