I just wanted to say that I am so thankful I discovered this site, and that I now have you all as an amazing support system. It's so nice to talk to others that are going through (or have gone through) what I'm going through. All my questions, concerns, insecurities, excitement... I have someone to share it all with! Don't get me wrong... I have an amazing husband, and wonderful family and friends, but it's not the same. None of them really know what we're going through.

So thank you! I'm only starting this journey, and already I don't think I could do it without you all!! :lol:

Congratulations on your surgery. Hope all is well and you are doing great. :teeth_smile: This site was a God send for me as well. Anything I could think of that I felt like I needed to ask, miraculousy had a thread about it somewhere. I continue to come almost daily and read up on other peoples successes, slips and methods for using their band.

Good luck and welcome to the best support place there is!

      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.
