As of today, I'm down to 410, that's 100lbs from when I started on the surgery plan! More progress left, but it's nice to be making a dent, lol.

Went to the auto show yesterday. As a big car guy, it's always been bittersweet. I love cars, but don't fit in half of them, lol. This year was much better! I was excited to see what the weight loss had done. Last time I went, I was about 520. This year, 446.

Quick reference. I did play football as an offensive and defensive lineman in school, so I guess I have to accept some cars aren't going to work no matter what. [emoji35][emoji3]

Corvette - lol, I don't think this one is ever going to happen my shoulder was sitting over on the other seat.

Mustang - actually fit comfortably.

Audi TT- only got in because the Audi guy was adamant, lol. But he was right. Damned if I didnt fit. With some more weight loss, it would be downright roomy.

Cadillac CTS-V - last go rounds heartbreak. Success, this time!

Can't wait to see next year!

Couple of new items!

First, I'm now down to 402lbs. Can't wait to break into the 300's.

Secondly, on my continuing car Quest, lol. I went by some dealerships to see what my options were. I now fit in quite a few cars I would have walked right by.

Toyota 86
370z

Still wondering about that Corvette though. Lol.

      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.
