Recommended Posts

:whoo:I really can't believe that. I met a coworker today ,we have spoke non the phone and through email for months.I have told her about my surgeries in the past. Well today I decided to go and meet her face to face. She saw me and said oh,my aren't you the skinny little thing..

I had to give her a hug THat felt great. at my surgeons office they have a saying nothing tastes as good as thin feels. I understand that today.

Just had to let everyone here know ... someone called me skinny today:bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce:

That's fabulous, I can only imagine how great that would have felt. Get used to it! I'm told that it happens a lot when you bump into people who haven't seen you for a while. Enjoy every minute!

Well congratulations on the new skinny you.. I called someone skinny on another thread and she was offended and thought I was bitchy.. OH well, we can't please everyone all the time..

But doesn't it feel great?? I remember people would tell me and I loved it but aometimes it didn't seem real.. And my little brother, who called me fattie all my life, saw me and told me, Man you look so skinny and it made me cry.. never been so happy in my life.

thanks it is amazing . I had a doctor tell me that he could never imagine me being overweight and they want to see the pictures as proof. When I show the picture, they want to recommend patients . I give thanks daily to the wonderful people that have helped me reach this place

      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.
