I am beyond excited, yesterday I woke up and weighed in at 199.4, today it was 199.2, I didn't want to post yesterday and hten wake back up in Twoterville! :clap2:

I have been below 200 in at least 2 years, not even w/ all of the dieting and exercise I did for my wedding. I was a 205 lb bride! How depressing is that? - Well for me it was tramatic.

I'm totally loving my band all over again.

To Celebrate I'm having a mega facial peel on Tuesday and taking the rest of the week off from work so I can recoop. This is the Year-of-Stephanie and I am determined that on my Band anniversary date (3/19) I will look like an extreme makeover. Beautiful body, toned from the gym and fat-free'ish from the band, beautiful, glowing skin from my weight-loss-reward treatments, and maybe I'll start playing w/ some hair color streaks along the way! :kiss2:

      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.
