Recommended Posts

What a fabulous achievement! And keep shopping at THAT store!!

I join the line of women who will never wear a size 6 (I NEVER wore it in my youth, so why think it'll happen when Im in my 50's), but 10's are possible. That's my goal - size 10's and a top that isn't a large or bigger!

You guys...you can do it...you WILL succeed!!! If I can do it...anyone can. Keep a positive attitude and keep working hard...it's so worth it.

lol, not everyone is going to be a size 6, my hips are too wide for one thing, but Im happy just to be getting down there and maybe in a size 8 or 10. I think size 8 has been the smallest Iv ever been in, even when I got down to 111 on Atkins. Im also 5 7. I cant ever ever remember being in a size 6, not even in Junior High school when I was underweight.

We are still happy that you are so happy to be in a size 6 and can enjoy that you got into such a tiny size.

Oh believe me...I'm sure I'm not a true "6"...my jeans are 8's and some 10s. I started out this journey in a size 22/24 pants (tight at that) and a 2x and some 3x tops. I am just so much in love with my new life. I never knew that I could be so happy with myself. It truly is wonderful. I'm serious...if I can do it, anyone can. Great job to everyone!!!!:thumbdown:

WTG mumof2boys! Isn't that a wonderful feeling????

I am in a size 8 right now, down from a size 18...the 8's are getting a little loose but still fit OK. I started in a size 2X(some 3X) tops and am wearing a very loose size L tops right now. But I have vowed not to buy any more clothes until I reach goal. I am saving my money for that day--when I reach goal I will reward myself with a huge a shopping spree!

Thanks...I appreciate it. I'm a little nervous right now because I just faxed my paperwork for my loan for my upcoming plastic surgery. YIKES. The pain and the money....oh well, it will all be worth it.

WOW! I haven't been a size six since I was in Junior High!!!! That would be awesome.

I can't wait until my surgery gets approved! I'd be over the moon to be a size 10!

      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.
