I am also getting a tattoo when I lose 100 lbs even though it's not my final goal.





I'm getting a full peacock wrapping around my calf in color. I'm going to start this summer. I'll be 5 months post-op.

I started a plastic surgery savings account last week. I'm putting money in it that I'm not spending on food. I'd also like to get my teeth fixed. Porcelain veneers. :-)

That's what I'm doing, I first started squirreling money away each payday in case the insurance wouldn't cover the procedure, luckily they did so now that goes over to the plastic surgery fund. A co-worker was able to get some work covered, ( I started at such a high weight, fingers crossed I can do the same.

My reward for hitting 230 is skydiving (haven't done it yet, but it's coming!). I've always said I'd get a tattoo when I hit 200, and I went ahead and paid for the art a few weeks ago. It should be done sometime next month. Really stoked, it'll be my first! It's Hebrew calligraphy for "set apart". It'll be on the back of my neck/spine. I've got 18 lbs to my final goal of 159. Maybe I'll reward myself with a thigh lift?

I would like to be able to afford some plastics after all is finished. I lost my job almost 2 yr ago. Working in a doctors office and was laid off due to a significant illness-was coded in the hospital and had renal and respiratory failure. Her reasoning was that I was too much of a risk. Anyway, I'm over all that (can't you tell)? No paycheck, no plastics.

I'm going to copy you on this! I think I'll end up needing a small tuck, and definitely will need a breast lift. I need it now and I'm pre-op. Going to tell my husband that I'm putting away money every month towards this. What a great idea!

      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.
