I had my bypass surgery 4/18/16

SW 318

Surgery Weight 308

CW 246

These were my favorite pair of jeans... Not anymore!!!! I have always struggled with my weight all my life.

Im high school my lowest weight was 250

Im now past the hurdle!!!! Cant even begin to say how existing it is to be lower then 250.

Im going on a family vacation in a week and i am for sure going on all the slides and rides with my 3 yr old!!! That moment when you can buckle the airplane seatbelt and not worry about it cutting off your circulation or being embarrassed to ask for an extender, don't need one now! post-288475-14713129941349_thumb.jpg

Thank you all! Its hard when ur not sure what the shape of your body is am i am apple, am i a pear, where did my boobs go...? I asked my husband if he sees a difference in my body and he said " i see u everyday, i dont see a difference" it made me mad at first, i lost 72 lb in the last year and u cant see the difference..... But then i didn't care! Because I see the deference, i feel the difference, i can go to Victoria secret and buy their sport pants and bras and it feels soooooo amazing!!!! When people come up to u and tell u that u are looking good. I was always scared of my body, never posted pics of me in a bra lol but it feels sooo safe in this group, to be around people that understand and that are going through the same thing.

      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.
