Your grocery bill is very low so you spend the extra money on new clothes!

You're appalled at the amount of food that people consume!

Tictacs are your new "candy".

You hear your stomach grumble when you lie down to go to sleep and instead of ravenously raiding the fridge, you check MyFitnessPal and know that you've had enough today, you're not really hungry, and those noises mean you might see a loss on the scale in the morning, so BRING IT!

People you have known for years but haven't seen in a while introduce themselves to you and ask who you are. Yup just happened two days ago and 2 months ago!

When someone calls you skinny and you turn around to see who they're talking about, but you realize they're talking to you!

You get that short sassy haircut you've wanted (that's me, today!)......

You say things to yourself like, "hey, I'm pretty amazing." (We are!).....

You wake up planning exercise.........

You wake up early and all you can think of to do with your extra times is go running. (I still can't believe I'm doing that!!)

When you are jogging outside and see a small shadow and look around thinking someone is next to you. Then you realize it is you.

Also you have to move the seat forward in your car because your belly isn't against the wheel anymore.

      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.
