Haven't posted in a few days, too much going on, went to beach one last time before kids started school on Monday, but I bought my first set of clothes @ 48-50 instead of 60-62, in down to 296lbs, started at 388 in January and was at 246lbs on June 10th surgery date, that -92lbs so far, and I started doing core exercises at the gym yesterday, I've had 2 minor stalls and I don't even care, and I think I really am addicted to this new healthy life, I don't eat crap anymore, nor do I have tolerance for it, I will try to stay ahead of schedule but I am looking at my goal weight of 198lbs by February 2016, I hope everyone of my buddies on here are doing well, I wouldn't have been able to get this far without this forum, I miss my Elode, and Babbs, two of my inspirations, see you all soon since I am planning to buy clothes soon and doing a before and after finally........

My wife took a pic of me on my chair at the Beach, and when I ran across an old photo of me 2 years ago on a fishing trip with my nurses from work I became very emotional, and since my wife sees me everyday she said she was in awe, I'm at 92 lbs less than 388lbs in the photopost-254362-14406306009918_thumb.jpg post-254362-14406306153784_thumb.jpg

      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.
