And you're right! I'm 49 and it never gets old hearing that. Mainly because I looked way older than I was as a fatty. It feels awesome.

Thank all of yall so much. And yes, it's so much more fun shopping for clothes. As a matter of fact, it just go cold here in Texas so I had to shop for cold weather clothes for work today. It's so much easier when you're not in the "woman's" sizes and there's lots of cute stuff! I actually had fun!

You look awesome, I know what you mean about target WL goal. My physician set my goal at 150 also. I reached that goal and really did look good but it was not where I wanted to be. At first I worried that below that would be too small based on my age of 58 but once I got to my current weight and realized it is a good weight for me. My last 20 lbs was my hardest, I had to do a lot of cardio and weight training and really had to learn the importance of intake and burning calories. My fitbit really helped me to grasp the concept of how we burn calories. You really look Fabulous, congratulations and continued success!

      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.
