Im so ready for this. I have wide feet and they hate shoes. It's like a kid spitting out veggies. Not much really agrees with my feet. So I'm hoping to lose some weight in them and go down a size or something or to atleast not be wide width anymore

I definitely think this is true, for me at least! Luckily, where I work, we can wear jeans and sandals, things like that as we typically don't have anyone in the office. Last week, we had to dress business casual because of someone coming in. I haven't had to wear dress shoes in about a year or so. I tried to put a pair of flats on, and when I walked, they flipped up and down off of my heels. So there was no way I could wear them. I never thought I had lost weight in my feet, but I guess I did. I'll take weight loss anywhere I can get it. :-)

I lost a size and a half!! From a 9 to a 7.5 and in some shoes a 7. This was the hardest thing for me. I LOVED my heels! As a big girl, I never had to hold back buying cute shoes, cute clothes, was a different battle. Now I have to start my heel collection all over again!! Oh well, I'll take a size 10 clothes over a 30/32 anyday!! Love my sleeve

      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.
