New haircuts? Makeovers? Etc?

I am lopping off a bunch of my hair to a short-ish bob later today. Can't wait! I am armed with dozens of photos of what I want --my poor hair stylist, LOL. When my face thins down, would love to try a short haircut!

I had to buy new clothes over the weekend. Actually got to shop in the "regular women's" side of the store. Still stretchy pants (like palazzo pants) but my incisions are still healing so avoiding anything too tight across my stomach right now. Also needed all new under garments. In about 2 months, I'm going to get professionally measured for a bra to make sure I start purchasing the right size.

Dyed my hair last week (upkeep mostly). Will probably cut it to around shoulder-length once it gets closer to summer, depending on how much it's thinning by then (it's already thin, but in May I'll be three months out from surgery, so probably starting to thin even more).

      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.
