Hi Y'all,

I'm not sure if this would be the right place topost this thread but, i'm gonna go ahead and do it. I've been working so hard and it's taken so long for me to finally be "proud" of my self. I'm now more than half way there. I've lost 60lbs and have 47lbs more to go. I had my surgery 1/24/07 and was in a size 20/22 and here I am 7 months later in a 10/12. It feels so good and it just keeps getting better. I just wanted to be able to share that w/ people who appericate and understand how hard this journey can be for all of us.:clap2:

      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?

      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.
