Progress Pictures

So here's an updated picture of me with my husband and our youngest child. It's the first picture of me in a very long time that I have really liked. :scared2:

Shiny you're looking great! Where'd your tummy go? Who knows, but at least you'll never find it again!

Tonight I was doing laundry and picked up my new red shirt that I'm wearing in the above picture. I thought it looked so small to me. I laid it out on one of my favorite shirts from my heaviest days. I had to take a picture. (The red shirt may have shrunk up a little in the wash, but I put it on and it still fits, so this is legit.)

Bet that put a huge smile on your face. I know it put one on mine. Another NSV, congrats!

Wow! Your success couldn't have happened to a nicer person! What a lovely, "shiny happy" family you have! And the shirt picture is astounding! I'm definitely going to do that someday!

Thanks. You guys are sweet.

I realized later that the pink shirt is actually what I wore to my first appointment with my surgeon. I'll have to send him that picture too.

That's an incredible picture, shiny! I had considered why I didn't at least keep one pair of my biggest pants and one of my biggest shirts. Just to remind myself where I come from and where I NEVER want to be again. That picture shows the difference!

I might even go out and buy some pants and a shirt at my largest. Should I? Maybe from Goodwill or something...

      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.
