Stop hiding behind sweaters etc. Having knee high boots that zip up, having more than a few things that fit.

It's been a while since anyone posted here. We were writing these in October. Have any of them come true? I took a plane ride earlier this week and I have extra room left in the seat! And I got my season pass to great America and I'm going to ride EVERYTHING!

So many things but the one thing that surprised me is my ability to work outside in the yard (in Texas summer heat) and not pass out! It is almost 100 degrees here and I finally came in so the dig would come in and cool off! He won't come in if I am out there and he looked ragged and panting! Not me yet! Yay!!

      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.
