2. Cruise in Asia

3. Clothes Shopping - I'm especially looking forward to finding/buying/making a cute raver outfit for EDC Orlando next year.

4. New bathing suit for summer

5. Mexico diving trip

6. Getting out my sports car that had become uncomfortable to drive do to my size, having it fixed up and repainted.

7. A boob job!

Ha! Love this! Maybe I'll revise my reward from going camping and tubing on the Frio (in a bikini), to getting tatties on the foobs? LOL, I horrified my PS when I suggested I might get Harley Davidson tats there instead of nip tats. :D Ahhhh BC, you make us laugh in your face! Cheers mamacita! Keep rockin' it!!!

I'm considering a tattoo as well, for when I get to my goal weight. But really I will probably do my first celebrating by shopping at 'regular' clothing stores rather than the one reasonably-priced plus size shop here.

Hubby and I Celebrate with trips to a more upscale hot tub gardens, get a room with a fireplace and a waterfall, and let the world melt away for a couple hours.

We also still eat! We both love adventurous dining, I just eat a hell of a lot less now.

My bestie and I celebrate with trips to antique stores, plays, and just hanging out doing art together.

For home with friends....rather than pizza, chips and soda......we do crockpots of white chicken chili and veggies with hummus. We still play stupid games, watch movies and hang out together. Hasn't changed that much:) And there's still some junk food around....but we're better about making sure the main meal is healthier.

I love to celebrate with my kiddo and hubby by doing something in nature. Kiddo and I both love nature photography, horseback riding, canoeing and hiking:)

We celebrate hubby's victories with small plane rides. Flyboy needs to stretch his wings every so often:)

      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.
