I wish!!! @Tyson4834 No, my marriage is over so me and the kids have left what was the family home. Been a bit of a nightmare but we're officially in. I really would love to move over to the States! I'm hoping it'll happen a few years down the line... would need to find a job etc first. Not sure if the president would want me there to be fair although I don't think the UK counts as a "shithole country" hehe! x

Sorry to hear about your marriage @MsTipps. I hope it works out for the best for you and the kids. I’m a firm believer in if you want something bad enough you will do whatever it takes to reach it. I guess all of us are in that boat or we wouldn’t have gone to drastic measures to lose some weight. I truly hope you make it over here one day. Who knows, your “Mr. Right” might be over here.

Sorry all I’ve been on vacation. So I’m down 68 pounds and I’m excited. I would like to lose 7 pounds by the 17th so that I lose 75lbs in 6 months #needtotryhardergoals.
@MsTipps I’m sorry to hear about your marriage but you moving is a great thing for you and your kids. Your journey is more complicated than mine but you’re rising to all the challenges. Stay strong my friend.

Happy Independence Day to y’all fellow Americans!! I’m weighing in today at 245. That is an amazing 95 pounds down since surgery day! July 10 will be my 6 month mark. I’m hoping I can lose 5 pounds by then but that’s a lot to lose in a short time period. Wish me luck!

@Marc76 that’s awesome that your doctors office does that. I kinda wish I got on that trend a little better.

Thank you @soccerkaty but the only reason these pictures are taken is because a nurse from the weight management program I attend forces me lol. I am happy now that she's taken the photos so I'm able to see the progress :)

I’m one week and 3 pounds from my six month goal... I hope I make it, it’s crazy I’ve never cared about my weight before and now I care and I want to hit goals. I’ll take some pictures next week! PS all of you look super good, I hope you all feel better too.

      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.
