Thanks! I also want a Pheonix tattoo that goes from my thigh all the way up my side.

I've been thinking about a tattoo as well, when I get to my goal. I'm leaning toward something incorporating a line from my favourite book that feels fitting to me now and about reclaiming my health...

"Renewed is blade that was broken..." written in elvish.

Hmmm I hadn't thought of a text. I guess it would be" She saw it needed done and did it!" or perhaps " In it to win it- and I did!" And what would the rest of you have tattoed?👈😰👉

I wish tough mudder was a little further away to have more time to heal because I would love to do that one.

I did one a few years ago, and just committed myself and my husband to doing one in April 2020 with the same crew (my surgery date is April 25). After training for that, I was in great shape. I’d lost about 90 lbs (so I was 50 lbs lighter than now but still obese), but more importantly I’d been trail running and lifting. I’ve started those things back up again. It was/is a great motivator, and was tons of fun. Well, except for the ice Water and the electrocution, of course! I’d recommend roping some friends in, it’s way more fun and some of the obstacles are designed with a team in mind.

      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.
