Well - here I am at my heaviest (about 275) - white shirt. The second one is a little more recent (about 260) - it was taken at Sun Studio in Memphis in 2006 (that's the microphone Elvis recorded on-whoohoo!) and no I cannot sing (at all!). Once I get to the "Progress" stage, I'll post more.

That's a nice pic, Leslie. I don't know if it is the angle or what, but it seems those 15 lbs have made a big difference!

Thanks! Yea - I HATE that first picture...it is really bad - I probably weigh more than 275 - that was an estimate. I had stopped weighing myself at that point (post newborn). I don't think the shirt helped matters. I don't wear that much cotton now - prefer more of the style of the other picture - makes me look a little thinner and covers those "problem" areas :-)...Hey AllyKat - Where are your pics?? hmmm?

Thanks guys! I love taking these pics as I can't REALLY see it in the mirror yet but I can see it when I put them side by side.

You know, that's what I do if I am having a really bad day with the weight battle. I look at my before and current and I can really see the difference. It keeps me motivated!

      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.
