Your journey has been filled with alotnof hardships but yet you have rolled with the punches in a state of grace that simply amazes me! I dont think I would be able to be in such good spirits as you are. You are simply amazing!!! I am still praying for you & a speedy recovery as you do not deserve to be going through more complications. You look absolutely stunning & you have a beautiful smile! Keep your head high as you have been & may you be blessed with a future filled with wonderful memories & be able to put all of these hardships behind you once & for all!!! Your husband is certainly one lucky man to have you as a wife!!!

you are the first person ever to say that my hubby is fortunate to have me as a wife @@cherbear33 Most see the hardship that he has endured with all I have been through. And I see it too. He is the strongest man I have ever known and I have fallen in love with him all over again over his strength and kindness for me.

It was very sweet of you to see it a different way...Thank you..You brought tears to my eyes!!!!!!!!

Not really. Still have a drain hanging from my side but it is what it is! :)

I've been wondering how you were doing. I read about your complications - wow, stiff stuff but you've powered through it!

How are you doing now?

And I love your pictures! One of these days I will post some of mine.

Congratulations, RJ. Now, suggestion (if I may): Go get a little sexy, fitted, black dress, or even a red one, and show those new curves! Rock on, RJ.

I have the skinniest legs on the planet......And I have to get some skin removed...I may find a long black dress. But no doubt my little black dress will never happen...

TY Sweetie!

      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.
