I'm still pre-op. And recently have been pretty curious to what my body might look like. I know a lot of factors play apart in what your skin and body will look like after a large amount of weight is lost.

I am an apple shaped. Which means I carry most if not all of my weight in my abdomen. So I have fairly thin legs and arms. So I'm looking for other Apples.

I will be around 310 when I have surgery. I started at my highest weight ever of 347. I am 5'7 3/4. ( yes that 3/4 matters! Lol) and I'm 31.

So if you had similar stats and Apple ID love to see them before and after pics!

Same here, almost! 5'8" 32 years old, and started at a size 24 and 339 pounds. Out of control!

      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.
