Fat girl nightmare realized and conquered!



Recommended Posts

This morning I got up, got dressed in the cutest new outfit (size 12 AEO skinny trousers, medium white top, medium Ann Taylor sage green crop jacket), hopped in my car with my cup of coffee and a list of things to do that gave me not a moment to deviate from schedule and started my day happy as a clam. Got almost to my destination, took a swig of coffee and spilled it all the way down my shirt. WTF?!?!?! As I was cleaning myself up and cussing up a storm, I noticed more coffee on my pants. As y'all former fatties know, we can't just run into any store, grab a quick outfit and move on with our day, especially at 8 in the morning when no fat girl stores are open and I had no time to run home. (Won't even talk about the expense IF you could find something that fit.)

Into Target I went! Within 10 minutes I was back out of the door, bag of clothes in hand that freaking fit! And didn't cost a fortune! In REGULAR sizes! Are you kidding?!

Best freaking coffee spill ever!

I'm a normal person! NORMAL!!!!!!!!

Whew! Ann Taylor has become one of my favorite places. I almost cried the first time I bought a top there! I was so thrilled! One of my other favorites is Talbots. Do you have those in your neck of the woods?

      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.
