Thank god a surgery like this was available to me! I have had had many ups and with this surgery and still am having some, but I wouldn't change it for the world. It was the best decision I could have made for myself.

I started at 250 pounds with a slipped disk in my back, terrible foot pain, exhausted all the time, very depressed.

I am now 124 pounds with no pain whatsoever and I love being me.

This surgery is exactly the tool I need to keep me on track and help me realize my goals.

I am a 35 year old single mom of two little ones and so glad I got my life back.

health, happiness and appearance have improved soooo much

wonderful transformation pics :rolleyes:

who deserves it more :rolleyes:

"love being me" - can't get much better than that :)

I regret not taking pics the first year showing my body changes

"hint" to newbies to take pics while you are loosing weight

seeing old/new pics are helpful to look at

reminds you where you came from (how could you forget? :(

pics can be a great motivator :rolleyes:

keep up the great job :)

i know you will

keep up the good job :rolleyes:

      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.
