Ummmm....you do realize that different types of lighting can account for tonal changes in a photograph????? hair color changes made you question the veracity of the picture???? SMH....I guess if anyone decides to post a WLS before/after picture, they'll need to make sure the pictures are taken with THE EXACT SAME CLOTHING, HAIR, POSES, LIGHTING, BACKDROPS, ETC to satisfy any naysayers.

Why be so disparaging......????? Just be happy for a person-& if you can't, DON'T COMMENT!

Uhm yea I realize that difference in lighting can change things, I'm not an idiot. What made me question it initially and apparently others as well is the amount of weight lost in 3 weeks. Because of that I looked closer and imo it looks like a different person. If you don't agree that's fine. If OP wants to defend herself she can. Calm down.

I didn't say you were an idiot .....I just don't get why instead of sounding judgemental or condescending, you or others couldn't have said something like "Great job! I see the new hair color too!" (or similar)...but that's just MY HUMBLE OPINION on the matter.

      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.
