first of many NSV



Recommended Posts

I finally fit into my leather jacket (it's been about 5 years) and my very favorite pair of Jeans~ both in the same week. I finally feel "pretty" and am enjoying putting on makeup, picking out my clothes and am no longer just throwing something on and running out the door.

That's so awesome! I'm right there with you. I'm not a mirror hog, but I've been putting much more time and effort into my appearance even at work (and I'm surrounded by 6 year olds there).

So glad you posted about leather jackets! I've never been a leather jacket wearer (not that I don't like them, I just never think to buy) but my grandfather passed recently and my grandmother said he'd have wanted me to have his beloved black leather jacket.

I've started wearing it and felt a little self conscious like, "are leather jackets in? is this cool?" But now that I hear you're wearing one, I'm feeling more confident. :D

      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.
