NSV - Something Nice Fits Me!!!



Recommended Posts

Oh guys it was great! We went to a Country House/Hotel thingy - very romantic - the rooms were in converted stables, and we all were in gorgeous little cottage type rooms - named Apricot Cottage, or Daisy Cottage - so adorable! AND I looked pretty good! Most people there hadn't seen me in ages, and I had an "Extreme Makeover Reveal" moment when I walked and jaws were dropping! I almosed passed out with happiness! My best friend, who is an amazing support to me, had a bit too much wine, and yelled proudly to everyone - "and look how small her boobs are now!!!" eeeeek!

I didn't take any photos but loads of people were taking some - I'll get dressed up again and take one for you guys! The best thing was I wore some really high strappy shoes and could stay in them all night! That's my first time spending the night in heels! I was blissfully happy, sitting in an armchair, WITH MY LEGS CROSSED! Seriously, is there no greater pleasure, in weight loss, than being able to cross your legs!???!!! If ever I write a book about this journey, I'm going to call it "Look at me, Crossing my legs!"

Anyway, thanks for asking, and sorry for going on and on....pics soon, I promise xx

Bright, I'm so proud of you!! You're already beautiful, so I can't wait to see you "all dolled up!" Sounds like you got a lot of well-deserved attention. What fun!

And I think you've got a best seller in that future book.

      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.
