HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!!

Julie, you look fabulous. I bet you feel great as well. You are such an inspiration, with the running as well as the plastic surgery. It makes me think that one day it really can and will happen!!

Thank you so much for sharing your story, and of course, your pictures.

Have a great Holiday.

Cindy

Pics from today's shopping spree! Can't believe it's 25 days to my LAST PS -- woohoo!

Scar pics within the week -- promise. They're turning out ok (knock on wood). The place that dips low on my backside is still pretty raw, but other than that, there's only one place where the scabs haven't fallen off. I bet they do within the week. Come on, recovery!

OH Julie - I missed this whole thread until now! I've been absent (minded) most of this month..............did look at the other first PS thread a couple of times and wondered????? Thought it was not like the Julie I know and love to not keep us up to date...............................

I'm crying right now for you....................honestly the tears are flowin....................you are truely my band child and I am so filled with emotion about how gorgeous you are. You are the inspiration for us all.....................everyone, you have to know how hard this beautiful young woman has worked the past year and 1/2 (we're band month sisters (rather mother and child) of April 2006)......................she pushes her body to the max with exercise, while being the poster child for doing the right thing with her band............while working "hours and hours" at her job and then going thru all the pain of the psurgeries....................Julie - you are an awsome role model for us all! On to Dec 20th and then to life as it should be lived - with happiness, love and no more pain - emotionally and in the body.

Julie every time you post new photos, I just sit looking at them for a few minutes in awe. You have done so incredibly well and as everyone else has said, you look fantastic - but you are beatiful both on the inside and out. You truly are an inspiration for those of us coming up behind you heading towards similar surgeries in our futures. Thank you once again for putting yourself, your heart and your life out here for us. It is truly appreciated.

Who said horizontal stripes aren't flattering? That is an awesome outfit. Those are all awesome outfits. Who hoo!

You look positively perfect. You inspire me to work harder on my last 6 pounds.

Hey, my new hobby has been shopping too. It's actually fun at/near goal

Hugs and congratulations to you my dear.

Sure -- both of these pics are elsewhere on this thread, but maybe it helps to put them together and crop them so that it's easy to compare -- wow, I hadn't done that before. My "after" looks like I stretched my length with photoshop or something, doesn't it!

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
