Well these are the first pix I can post up for my before and after... well current anyway. the first pic was taken on day 2 of my pre-op diet so about mid of November. The second was taken just last night on January 8th.

I was just under barely 400 pounds in the first and I am at 357 now!

I have been working hard to get fit since April 07. I got my surgery on July 13th. As of today I am down 115 pounds. I cannot find any pictures of me at my top weight (surprise!) I think the before pictures are about 290. I am now 215. I was 330 when I started.

only 65 to go!

I love how everyone dresses better and takes more pride in their appearance in the "after" photos. It's not just about the weight. It's about the attitude!

Ok, here I am. Before, size 26/28, after, size 6

When I look at my before pictures I cannot believe that I am that person.

I really can't believe that that's the same butt!!! Wow!

      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.
