Great! More June Bandsters!!

I am so excited. I worked so long and hard to get to this point in my journey. I cant believe my time is almost here!

I have to say, though, I am surprised by some of the feedback that I have encountered on this board. The majority of it has been

supportive, but at times I have encountered some........"snarkiness."

What has your experience been?

Chamie, I haven't had to deal with "snarkiness" because my husband is the only one that knows. I'm going to take vacation from work so I won't have to tell anyone there...lol

I can't say I've dealt with snarkiness on this site. Majority of people seem to be supportive and very knowledgeable of the things to come.

As far as personal life goes, I haven't placed restrictions on who I'm telling. My closest friends, family, co-workers, and boss knows... simply because I think having that additional support, especially at the place where I spend 40 hours a week ;)

      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.
