Thanks Kristi for making my day!

Thank you KRISTI!

Today Kristi gave me some boxes of clothes that are way too big for her. I didn't think I could fit into any of them because I'm in a 20 right now, but the first thing I tried on, this skirt actually fit me and it's an 18!!!!!!!!! an 18. I'm beside myself! When I started this thing I was wearing slightly baggy 28's (26's were too tight). I didn't think I'd be able to actually put on and zip up an 18 and it zipped right up.. So, thank you again Kristi and your clothes are really nice, so I'm going to be looking fashionable at work. Of course, this shirt in the picture is just one of my ratty shirts, but the skirt fit. Yay.. you can't tell in the picture, but the skirt is like a long pencil type skirt. And I chopped off my head because I look absolutely hideous right now and there are awful shadows on the back wall, but you get the idea. But yay.

PS: I just looked at the picture and I'm standing funny so my feet look weird. LOL. I did this little knee up thing.. I promise to never do that pose AGAIN. lol

Oh YAY!!! I'm so happy for you! And I LOVED that skirt when I used to wear it. There's another one similar to it, same size, in a purple pattern. I'M SO HAPPY YOU CAN WEAR THEM!!! Woo hoo! Here you were thinking you're a 20, and you're actually an 18! I am so freakin' proud of you, I could cry!

Well, not all the 18's fit me, only some of them, those skirts included. But, even if I can get one 18 zipped up, I'm excited. LOL. As soon as I saw those skirts I got excited. Very expensive high end skirts. You always dress so cute though! I promise to put them to good use and pass them on to another lapbander.

I'll be onto my size 8 and then 6 pretty soon, and you'll be ready for that size 10 chocolate brown pant suit I wore to lunch yesterday. I'll be so happy when I can give it to you! (And I don't think that skirt looked nearly as good on me as it does on you!)

      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.
