All I can do is add to the accolades. It's a beautiful picture of you and your daughter. I'm sure that you will both treasure this and all future photos. It's true....we want those memories and the pictures are wonderful to have and look through. Make sure you take many more.

Roo,

Thank you for your reply & your comments. I will do it! I will take a picture with my baby when I get home tonight! It will serve as my "before" since I started my 2 week pre-op diet this morning.

I love it! I am going to do that-you inspired me to do a mother daughter photo, in matching colors on the beach when I get down there. Thanks for the inspiration. You are beautiful and so is your daughter. Love your hair!

My hair is a wig actually! But thank you...I had severe Hair loss before surgery due to PCOS and having to take blood thinners. The surgery was just the last in a line of things that caused it to fall out. My real hair is almost non existent on top and sides and only slightly better in back. I figured it would happen so I was proactive and bought the wigs before surgery. It was hard to get adjusted to at first, more mentally than physically. But I have been wearing since end of November so I am pretty acclimated to it now.

Glad to hear you decided to do the pics. It is hard not being critical of ourselves. But those who love us, who want those pictures, they don't see it. All they see is their loved one.

Hi and thanks for sharing!

Just wanted to let you know that I too have had that same issue, I have so few pictures of me with my family because of how I hated the way I looked in them and now the past is gone and there is no 'do over'. Time to live life and accept where we are at and what we look like, the good the bad and the ugly. I need to get some before and after pics myself but I have so few that it's a damn shame LOL.

You guys look great, 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.
