The other day I was walking to my car and my Diamond engagement ring fell off and went clink clink clink on the ground. My first reaction was pretty normal: "OMG" and started running after it, but then I almost got teary because when I started this journey I was not even able to wear my wedding and engagement rings because I had gotten so heavy, and now they are falling off!! I am going to wait a little longer until I lose more weight and have them resized. I cannot believe I have to have them resized because they are still the same size from when I got married!!!

Anyone else have a great NSV?

Yeah, I thought it was pretty remarkable. I have had NSV's but none so frightening and so wonderful at the same time....LOL

      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.
