Thats good stuff Liz keep up the good work you look beautiful!!!

I myself have started to notice that the clothes I haven't worn in a couple years are fitting now. I also had to put in an order at work for more uniforms.

My NSV, I bought a pair of size 12 jeans for later...and I tried them on and they fit NOW!! Im 9 weeks post op and started off at a size 16. The size 12's are really snug, but I cant believe I can get them on (buttoned and zipped ;-) )!

Everyone is doing so well! I love to hear all about NSVs.

-I always thought of my lab partner and thought thats what I want to look like. Well the other night we swapped some clothes and all the clothes I got from her were all a little too big!

-The fact that I can actually swap clothes with my friends! who would have known I would see the day!

- I now wear a size M top and a size 12 bottom. I used to be a 3x/2x and 26/28.

-I work in a store where designer is everything and I could never fit into designer jeans until now! I'm offically a size 32 in jeans.

-I have run into a few people I went to high school with and none of them recognize me. This is nice but it is also really embarrasing when you say hi and they look at you like you're crazy.

i bought my first pair of jean shorts -- EVER! and guess what? they are a size EIGHT from zara.. and even a little loose around the waist! i actually considered going back and exchanging them for a 6, but i've never tried that low a size and it just seems crazy to me. next time i'm around there i promise i will try on the smaller size... but for now i'm just gonna enjoy these shorts while its still hot outside!

my goal size at the beginning of this journey was to wear a solid 8.

Good job Jane!

I have to use a belt now for my size 38 work shorts. I've always dreamt about being able to wear anything in the 30's... and now I'm more than halfway to a 36. Woo! Kind of ike Jane said though, anything smaller than a 38 seems crazy right now.

I have two NSV's to post!

1. Got my hair cut...no chopped off...SHORT! Like above my shoulders! This is a big deal for me because I've always had super long hair that I wore down...like a shield or security blanket covering my body or something. The biggest amazing thing is that I'm comfortable not having my hair to hide behind and *gasp!* might actually even like my new hair style! lol

2. People have been noticing the weightloss! I've seriously had like 10 different people comment on how good/how much thinner I'm looking over the past week or so. Feels so good! Especially since my scale hasn't been moving much lately and I've been feeling so frustrated lately.

Two great NSV's! Looking forward to more throughout this process!

I had one that I realized yesterday. So to ride the bull at a club i go to you have to be under a certain weight. Now when I started my journy I was almost 90 lbs and thought I would never be able to. I as of a few days ago could now ride this bull if I wanted to. I am so excited

Wow. That's awesome. Good job! I'm still counting the days where I can start wearing clothes from Pacsun.

And Angie, the size 31's look great on you.

Awesome Job!

thanks MrRiceGuy...

yeah it's strange because remembering back to when I was 165 I wore a tight 14 from american eagle...now I wear a comfortable 12 at 183...has there been a change with vanity sizing or something in the last 5 years? :S

Wow, I haven't worn 38's since I was in high school and worked out A LOT. I'm happy that I'm down to 42's. 38 is closer to my final goal. I'm jealous. Good job, duder!

      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.
