How wonderful for you to be in a size 6. Wonder how we change the image we have in our head of how we think we look?

Congrats again.

Jeni,

You'll figure it out.

Tomorrow is two weeks after my plastic surgery. I can't imagine having to go to work feeling like I do. Well I can imagine it. I'd be able to get my work done, but I'd be wiped out at the end of the day.

I'm happy I have 4 more weeks off to recover.

I am driving a bit now and only keeping the pain medication for bed time, which makes me feel more regular. Which is nice.

Also, I was fearful about not having my band adjusted (unfilled) before surgery, but it was a good choice. I have my same restriction and I'm eating small amounts. Makes me happy...

Enough about plastic surgery. How is everyone doing getting to your goals? Is the spring weather getting people outside and exercising more? Are there summer goals?

      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.
