Incredible progress. Good for you :)

Your point about avoiding the camera and the "old you" never posting photos really hit home. I can really identify with that.

I avoid the camera, delete photos and never post them... hopefully that will change once I gety surgery, get back on my journey to healthy again, and get my confidence back again :(

I also avoid the camera like the plague. That really resonated with me , too.

You look simply stunning and thank you for sharing your pictures.

I have always been camera shy for many reasons, mostly due to my weight. This little collage shows me 8 days prior to surgery, the second is 1 month post op and the last is this my 5 month post op picture (this week) .

I can't believe the changes in myself in only 5 months. The old me would NEVER post pictures of myself. While I haven't lost any pounds in the last 2 weeks , I have dropped another pant size, going from 20 down to 12 so far. I love my sleeve, it's been life changing for me.

Keep up the good work!

      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.
