Want opinion on my pictures!!!



Recommended Posts

Hey all,

I'm getting frustrated because I've lost about 40 pounds, and I can definitely see/tell it on my body, but I swear my face and double chin haven't shrunk. I have posted a pic from right before surgery, and one from today. Be honest, does my face look any smaller or thinner?

This might help. You'll probably see a more noticable difference if you can get the same facial expression in your photo trail. That's why I'm frowny in all mine - no chance that smt glike a double chin or cheeks are exaggerated/diminished due to a smile, turtle neck, etc. :)

That's so cool, thank you for redoing my pic for me. I'll make a mental note to make the same facial expression from now on :)

You look great! I think you should treat yourself to a new haircut to accentuate your lovely face! ;)

LOL!!! Yes, I'm an anal retentive neat freak, so my desk always looks like that. I'm in Document Control, so it suits me very well!! I was just thinking I need to treat myself to a new color and cut, I just need to figure out what I want to do with my hair. ;)

      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.
