I wonder who came up with the graphs in the first place.

Obese to me sounds quite nice to me too.:)

My niece (age 6) was playing with her friend in the playroom and I went to the bathroom (which is next to the playroom) and I hear.... "How come your aunt is so big but my mom is so skinny?" I was horrified! But a smile was brought to my face when my niece replied, "She isn't big, she's just a bit fluffy."

ROFLMAO @ fluffy

I know I really shouldn't think it is funny but I thought it was much better than being called fat by a 6 year olds. Was actually refreshing.

Emmy, one of my favorite NSVs was discovering that I was finally ON the chart at my gym. The BMI chart helpfully goes up to 38, and when I started this process my BMI was 47. So it took a while, but when I saw one day that I was actually ON that chart I was dancing for days. :)

Fluffy sounds good to me much nicer than fat lol. I was 44.9 when I had my surgery and I just worked it out again and now its 37.6 what a great feeling.

We should have our own LapBand BMI chart. You have to weigh at least 200 to find your BMI so skinny people can see what it's like to be non-existent.

      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.
