Still a long way to go before AFTER pictures for me, but this is DURING!

Here's me before & again at 4 months post-op, down 50 pounds.

Expect another set when (not if) I loose another 50!

Here are my "in progress" pics. I still have so much more to lose. Down 50 pounds since Jan 31st. Now I wish I would have smiled in my before pic..LOL!! And ok..I'll admit it!! That spot on my jeans is from the popcorn I had at the movies..I couldn't help it! :o I just didn't realize until after the pic was taken that it was still there. Woops!!

I haven't posted in a while but here is my most recent pic, and one I took before surgery. I started at 238, and a size 18. I now (depending on boob and butt size) go between an 6 and an 8, have run my first marathon and continue to love Protein Shakes as much as I did when I started. Cheers - Gyps

I know this is a before and after pic but I justwanted to post this as kinda a backwards B&A This was me when I was about 270 and my wife back in '03. I really want to get back down to this. I lost all my weight on Atkins and gained it all plus some in under 4 years.

I can see a little difference in my pics. I don't have one at my highest of 389lbs but I do have this one the night before the operation and a pic from the other day. I have lost a couple more since this already.

First 2 pics were taken two days after surgery and the last two were taken 6 months later (i.e. today). I'm down 55 lbs and have 45 more to go.

      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.
