Anyone want to post pre op pictures With me, the pictures where were not hiding behind anyone to make us appear thinner. The kind of pictures we would never post on FB. In 35 days I will have my surgery and never look like this again. So here it goes....post-253075-14314389960674_thumb.jpg

My head looks way to small for my body. ;(

I'll join you. This pic was taken several months preop when I gave Beachbody/Shakeology a try. I had to post it to our closed FB group page and it was hard to swallow then and it is still hard to see it. Here it goes....talk about a head looking tiny. :P

Thank you guys for saying I look good. But I feel the same as everyone else here. Would never put a photo like that on FB. I try to behind people and objects to make my body look smaller.

@@KathyLynn160 I have tried Shakeology and Body by Vi and have not personally not had success with either. I feel hungrier sometimes after I drink a shake. I don't always feel that way with them so I do drink them for Breakfast or lunch when I'm in a rush but I have never lost weight while using them.

      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.
