Wow!!!!!!!

I'm so happy for you. That's how I measure my sucess is by smaller sizes. I don't pay that much attention to the scale as much as how loose my clothes are and my ta-tas ; ).

That's awesome Sissy! Something similar happened to me on Saturday. I was a size 24 pre-op, and haven't bought any new clothes since surgery. On Saturday, I went over my mom's house, she had some 18's that she had that didn't fit her. I didn't think they would fit, but they did! It's awesome when that happens because for some reason I look in the mirror and I still see the same old me, I don't see any changes really. But the clothes tell a different story!

I still see "fat" me in mirror too but everyone else just raves over the way I look. I can hardly believe my changes I wanna just pinch myslef sometimes. Lol

Haha that will be great. I made few goals before surgery and at 3mo I have already passed my 6mo goal :). Next goal is down 30 by June vacation :) weight loss has slowed down some now though so I'm back at gym kickboxing :)

      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.
