OMFG, I don't even know how to write this all down. It's such a blur. See, I've lived my life hiding for years. I hated my body so I hid in my house or just by not putting myself out there. Anyway, I'm so far on my journey now, I'm wearing size 10 jeans (I'm still 177 lbs folks. So for all of you who look at "plateau's" as horrible things just remember this. I've been at 177 lbs for over a month or more now but I've dropped almost 3 sizes. Because I'm working out, building muscle and reshaping my body) and I have been feeling pretty good about myself.

My friend invited me to go to a going away party for one of her friends. My friend is about 10 years younger than me. Not an issue but is relevant as all her friends are 10 to 20 years younger than me. So we get to this party and roll in. I'm feeling good, I spent a lot of years partying so I am completely comfortable in this setting regardless of the ages and I feel more relaxed and at ease than I have in years because I'm so much smaller and feel more socially average.

Anyway, I'm just having a blast. I'm joking around, doing my thing. After a few hours my friend pulls me aside and says "Do you realized you have about 8 guys all trying to get with you tonight and then there is that other guy who's done nothing but circle around you??" I was FLOORED. Seriously? Me? The 42 year old woman when there are about 30 young, barely dressed girls in there 20's all over the place?? WHAT??? And she was like "No, you're f**king hot and don't realize it! You could nail at least 5 of these guys right there and that other guy would take you home in a second!"

lol! The ego boost was PHENOMENAL! I think I'll ride high on this for years. One german exchange student kid in college just straight up came up to me and asked me what it would take to go home with him. I told him it would take him being at least 10 years older cause I could have given birth to him. He did not believe me at all. hahah! It was AWESOME! That one night has totally changed my perspective on myself and how I am viewed. Holy. Crap. say WHAT???? I can't even get over it. lol! I've been in shock for 2 days now.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
