Fantastic!!! I have a closet of skinny clothes I am longing to get back in to. Especially my jeans and heels! I can't support my weight in heels anymore and that was a sad sad day.

Alcohol is a tricky one.. Best to avoid.... Cocktails? Go for a very mild one (and perhaps only the one at first) and probably after 6-8 weeks. Booze can hit really hard and no one likes a sloppy drinker.

But again, before the abstinence fundamentalists get on one... Best to avoid alcohol until you get into your groove with the weightloss and new healthier lifestyle... So a few months.

Same here! I was so excited to shop in the "normal" size section. Shopping downstairs at JCP was great, so much to chose from :-). Very happy day indeed.

      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.
