Too funny! I have not experienced a lot of comments like this yet, but I expect to start hearing them more and more once I get under 200.

It's really funny because people have NO idea about WLS and exactly what it is. I told both my best friends and one has had it, so she's informed but the other, bless her heart, asked me if I look different and can I send her a picture lol I didn't take offense because she's been super supportive as well but she just doesn't get it (as I've already tried to explain what it was) I just told her it's not like I got Lipo or a Tummy Tuck I still have to change the way I eat and exercise this just helps me lose and keep the weight off

It is a total myth that this is easy. I am putting in a lot of work so that one day I will achieve my weight loss goals. Then there is the lifetime of staying fit and healthy. I love this life but it is not easy.

That's the million dollar question and it takes a million dollar answer! Hell No It's Not Easy ! Your worth is in the WORK you put into it! ITS LIKE WORKING AT A STEEL MEEL BACK IN THE DAY! But at the end of the day or journey the result is WORTH IT and the end result is DARN GOOD!????‍♀️????‍♀️!

      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.
