Wait until a few weeks before you go?

They will still be selling swimsuits then! And think how much fun the shopping will be!

My surgery is March 20th and I am going to South Carolina in June. How has everyone known what size to buy for the future? I will need a new swimsuit and I don't have a clue what to do.

There is now way to predict how your weight loss is going to go. I would wait until June. Sizes are weird. It depends on the designers. Try things on. You are going to go through many different sizes in the future! lol Enjoy

I would totally plan to go on a swimsuit shopping trip once you get there- work it into your trip, then you have a hot new suit that you can say you bought on vacay! It'll be a nice memento and probably be the only practical souvenir you get anyways! :lol:

10 weeks post surgery you’ll be down for sure but... we’ll, it might be your bust, it might be your bum, or half and half! I dropped a pants size in 4 weeks, but have only just this week seen shrinkage in my matron-tits down a bra size!

      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.
