Recommended Posts

jtag - big difference! You look beautiful. Isn't it funny how we get a neck when we lose weight? Actually it is that 2nd chin going away, but still! hahah

Jtag,

We do have a before pics thread that has a lot of our pre op pics. I've been dragging my feet on posting my pics. I promise I'll get it done soon:cool2:

I look at my photos and can't tell a damn thing. I had all 4 of them up on my computer last night. My sisters' camera sucks. But when I get home later will post them for what its worth. I have the day before surgery and then one on each month anniversary or close to it, of the surgery.

I think too, that next month, I am going to take the picture with my hair done and makeup on because they are down right scary looking.

I am in awe at all of your progress!!! I am getting banded on May 1st and it almost seems surreal that I am finally going to have the tool that I need to manage my weight!!!

My weight has occupied way too much of my time and emotion over that last 40 yrs. It's time to live now!!!

I hope that I have as much success as you all have had. Congratulations on your victories and keep up the AWESOME work!!! :lol: :huh2:

I didn't realize my side view pic wasn't showing. Sorry they're so big. I think there's a little difference.

These are awesome, thanks to all for sharing! Like many of us, I hated pics in the past and I still don't like them. I had full-length pic taken about a month before my surgery so I need to get back in the same outfit and take another to see if I can see a difference.

I have totally plateaued at this point, I have had 2 fills, but no real restriction to speak of, my next one is in 3 weeks so I am looking forward to the "sweet spot" and to kick-start this back into gear!

Great job to everyone, I love seeing the progress pics!

Everyone's looking great!

Chrisann, I can tell a difference! It's always hard to see the changes in yourself.

Nukechik- your sig line says it all...you must have found a smaller booty!

Keep up the great work!

      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.
