Today is day 4 of my liquid diet. It is not half as bad as what I though it was going to be. 4-5 shakes a day , a few popsicles, chicken broth and tons of water keeps me full. I seriously thought i was going to crack by now. Still have to pack for monday and take some before photos. ( havent had a picture taken of me in years) -

Lauranbob Mc replied to Lauranbob Mc's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I actually dropped the class last night. 36 hours of homework in one week for all my classes and with surgery coming up I had to cut one thing out. I am going to be taking it next semester. my classes are 8 weeks long so they are very intense. -

So I was thinking how only some insurance companies pay for it and other will not . or another topic I though of id ... will the benefits of WLS outweight the risks ? Help me out -

I wouldnt say hungy... i am using the smoothing king "gladiator" 46G protein per drink. I cut that in half so I only get 23G just so I can learn to choke it down. ( I have tried a dozen different brands and so far this s the best) I will last me 2 hours and then my stomach is growling again -

did they prescribe an anti-nausea for you? Zofran 8mg ODT or Phenergan syrup. -

OMG I have the magic bullet and I am going still going to use that and bring it work with me. but the ninja is the fantastic !!! I also bought some very small rubbermaid containers which hold the perfect amount of food and Protein Powder for work and travel. The set I got at Pier 1 had the spoons already with it. If you have an Ikea near you I know they carry the demitasse spoons cheap and there are no cartoon charaters on them :-) -

I start my pre-op diet on Sunday. 4 shakes per day and clear liquid for one week. I just bought a kitchen ninja pulse for my smoothies. it makes them go down easier. I also went to pier 1 and got some cute tasting dishes. they are just the right portion. -
