What a pair of jeans can do for lost hope!



Recommended Posts

When I thought I lost all hope, thinking noting is changing I tried on a pair of 16 jeans to show my mother I was right nothing has changed. OH GOD IT WAS GREAT! They fit........... I started in a tight 22.

How something like this can make you feel better than great.:whoo:

I know where you are coming from. Just this week I tried on 2 pair of pants, one being a pair of jeans. I looked at the first pair and said to myself...no way these babies are going to fit...whoopie they fit. Then on to the Jean's, they also fit. I was so happy, I showed my husband, and then I told everyone! LOL Just keep up the good work. I have lost around 49 or 50 Lbs and I still want to lose another 90, to a hunderd more. I will judge that after I see what I look like. :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?

        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.
