Hello Sleevers,

I can finally appreciate non-scale celebrations! In the beginning of this journey it was all about the numbers on the scale, but now it's all about PROGRESS!

I'D LIKE TO Celebrate THE FOLLOWING:

Since High School, 10yrs ago, I've always wanted to wear knee high boots but even the wide- width leg boots couldn't fit! Today, I tried a pair on expecting not to fit them but I could and they were a shoe size smaller!!!!!!

I can fit my dress that has been in my closet since 2012

I can paint my OWN TOENAILS

I tried on a SIZE ZERO shirt on in Torrid and it was TOO BIG

I kicked butt in Zumba; I finished a whole class without stopping!!!!!!!!

How about you...please share so that we can Celebrate together!!!!!

@@CherieN how tall are you? I'm 5'8 and 243 but I'm still a 2 at Torrid :-/ But it's better than the 4 I used to be! I started at 325, too. My NSV is I bought a pair of sexy heels and I can actually walk in them comfortably!

Nsv... For me, I am back sleeping in our bed together with my husband and we are very much enjoying each other and can sleep the whole night together because I don't snore anymore. Soo happy!!

      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.
