Got a call from the fraud dept with my credit card company today...they made me hold, then an account representative came on the line to ask me if a recent "uncharacteristic" purchase in the amount of $119 paid to bodybuilding.com was a legit purchase. -_-

I literally laughed my butt off. I said, geez! Can't a girl have a new years resolution?! I confirmed the charge, which was my post op Protein powders, and one item I ordered for my mom, and the account rep wished me well...just thought I would share with you guys, hopefully you find it as funny as I did!!

Hope you told them that you will soon be spending in normal sized clothes stores and that they will become "characteristic" purchases.

      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.
