DeeDee, I'm sorry the bridal show wasn't wonderful, but it's wonderful you've found a dress you love that makes you feel beautiful! Maybe you could have the dress shop take a photo of you in it, and you can keep it as a reminder of what you're working toward?

I sent you a private message DeeDee. I'm SO greatful I found this thread right now!! I am in the exact spot you are. I was honestly afraid to even come here and post for fear of people being mean about it. I feel like a failure sometimes at it really sucks. But I refuse to let that be true. I lost about 100 pounds (Down from 379 my heaviest)- with still 100 to go since I was a heavy weight. I stalled at 280 and then the weight crept on. I put on about 14lbs. When I saw 294 on the scale over the holidays I FREAKED. I've taken off 5lbs so far, down to 288 but still a ways to go. But this thead was really helpful to me and I thank everyone for their helpful advice in here.

I'm back to tracking my food again daily (If anyone wants to add me on MFP my name is Fallenangel2904) could use new support on there! And I'm going to join the V day challange too! I know things are going to be a little harder because I've lost a lot of the restriction I felt early on. I just am truly to figure out Portion Control again since for so long I let my sleeve do it for me. I have to be on top of it.

We got this! I am truly motivated after reading this and think we can do 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.
