Jonathan,

You must be incredibly relieved!! I read your post about your slip and I felt so frustrated for you but now to hear that going back on liquids rectified everything I just have to do a little mini-hustle/electric slide in my computer chair.

By the way, I love to read your posts. You are the most eloquent, intelligent and sensitive guy and to think, you're straight!!!!

Yeah!!!

Oh Jonathan, what fabulous news!!!!!! It couldn't have happened to a better person, I am so very, very happy for you. Now you can continue your journey and hopefully, without any more problems. Thank you so much for sharing your experiences, both the good and the bad, it is reality, something we must all deal with.

Now don't be a stranger and please keep us posted. This is one story I can't wait to see how it all turns out. I'm a sucker for happy endings.

God Bless and Good Luck

Cindy

      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.
