I totally get fat brain ! I don't see or feel a difference and I'm down 31 pounds.
I'm stunned when I got into something I KNOW IS TOO SMALL!
Every day I say goodbye to the weight! When I'm dressing or showering, putting on socks or brushing my hair... I say a little goodbye ...
Goodbye double/triple chin
Goodbye dimpled thigh
So long overhanging belly
arrivederci bra fat
Aurevoir cankles
Move on down the road slappy arms...
You've served me and I am done with you.... Good bye!
I also find it funny how many people comment on my hair...
"New color? Looks good!"
"New cut? Love it!"
"Wow, what have you done with your hair?"
Nope, Nope, Nope! Nothing Nothing Nothing!
People are shy about noticing the weight... Just in case their wrong and you haven't lost the weight!
So apparently I've got great hair and ought to consider an xL shirt size too...
Say goodbye to each glorious pound for our "new problems" are fewer than the ones attached to those califlower thighs!
Blessings to u!IMG_5214.JPG.93b367136166f4a7612b3837116dd79c.JPG

Such a funny post, and totally true! I still take a size 18 into the change room in case the 14 doesn't fit. I have been asked if I have done something to my face as I look younger - um no, but 14 kg less of me probably gives me a spring in my step.

Nothing beats that feeling of success when you slide into a pair of clothes that you're convinced won't fit at all. :-)

      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.
