Recommended Posts

I've attempted a exchange thread before. I think its a great idea. I'm excepting and paying shipping on any nice 38/30 mens clothes....Hand me downs no problems..I'll do the same when I am done with the 38's..I came from 44 and have given the rest or most of them to people at work....let me know..

Michelle sent me 3 boxes, and they were left on my front porch. If anybody wants me to sign for boxes being sent, I'll send you PM with my work address, since there's always someone at my office to sign.

But everything has to be here before next Thursday, since I'm taking Friday and Monday off as vacation days to play with you little banded bandits!

Ginny: I might have some 26/28 still hanging around here too. So I will bring what I can find. Some stuff I have either only worn once or never worn. LOL!!!

Michelle: I am planning on doing the same thing myself before heading to Vegas. LOL!!!

Hi Guys,

I am sorry to say that I totally got rid of all of my fatty clothes at clothing swaps or charities here in TX. However, I still have 26-28 very expensive power suits and cocktail dresses that I can bring if there is anyone that would need something like this.

I am lucky enough to have a bandster friend who now weighs 168 who has given me her 14-16's and I have been living on these til I get to my final destination. Yes, it still amazes me that I fit in these sizes..... I guess I will soon run out of bandsters who will give me freebies. Thats the downside to getting closer to goal. THeres no one to give me clothes!!!

Babs, I say bring them. Cocktail dresses usually run smaller, plus I'm tall. I don't have anything fancy like that. I could play dress up! There's always alterations, right?

Hahaha, I planned on cleaning my house, pulling weeds, making everything perfect for this weekend, but I was too busy having fun on my new motorcycle. You guys don't mind a little dirt, do you? Carol, I can taste those Margies now!

      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.
