Heading on spring break vacation with my kiddo soon. Decided I better get some shorts since we are going somewhere hot. I've been living in stretch yoga pants since last summer. Oh my. I'm now the largest size I've ever been. Surgery in may can't come soon enough! Heck, I'll have a hell of a "I used to wear these pants" picture in a year!

On the plus side, I was not the one crying in the dressing room (Yep, that was in the cube next to me). I know I have a plan so I'm not going to stress about how big I am, for the first time ever! I'm going to go enjoy the trip and keep on counting down. I know the next time I'm on a beach I'll be much much smaller. And that is exciting. I almost want to video how people treat fat people and video again in a year for a social study. Lol. I may even take pictures with my kid, to look at next spring break and see how far I've come.

      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.
