A Tale of Two Suits



Recommended Posts

I keep looking at my new bathing suit hanging there in the bathroom and I can't believe I fit into it. So I decided to dig through some of my older clothes and found the suit I bought about 8 months ago...and I had already gone down two sizes when I bought it. I know we post before and after pics but I thought this was also a good way to show another type of before and after. Or should I say before and during as my journey is not yet complete.

LOVE IT! It is sooo amazing to see the transformation. And on those occasions where its tough to look in the mirror and see it for ourselves...its hard to deny it when you see a photo like that!

Great job!

I just cleaned out my closet today of size 18, 20, 22, AND 24 pants....LOL

Now I have 5 pairs of size 16's that fit me....it was nice to be able to rid myself of all that baggage...won't be going back there!

Super super job...thanks for sharing it! :)

Congrats!!

The two suits belong to two different people.. : - )

I've an only pair of enormous jeans left from my obese days.

Every now and then I take them out of the trunk where I 've put them..just to remind me of how fat and unhappy I was and to reinforce my resolution not to come back.

      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.
