You have all been such an inspiration to me. Congratulations to all of you on your weight loss! You all truly look wonderful. I look forward to coming on the Before/After pix. So after four months and 76lbs down I have decided to post. This is still so hard just because I have so much more to loose. I am so thankful for the results though that I hope to give others hope that we can all fight the fight of morbid obesity and obesity alike. God Bless everyone on their journey...We can do this!

<HR style="COLOR: #e9e9e9" SIZE=1>Time for an update.

I hope the pics work this time!

First pics of me: Before and After LapBanding.

The first is in 2005 and the second pic is Early 2006. Same outfit, different look!

OK, next is late 2006 after a Tummy Tuck but I'm still losing weight.

Finally, here I am a few months ago - after goal weight. (I'll just put a link here. I'm fresh out of the shower in this picture, in my undies. Don't want to offend anyone!)

Even though this is an ongoing journey, Im proud of where I am. There are those who make snide comments ("Well you lost so much weight, you probably have so much hanging skin." or even "Oh, I guess you think you look so good now. Don't get a big head.")

No, I don't have a big head, but I haven't been this size in years. Hooray for the LapBand! clap2.gif

      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.
