Good luck LadyBC' date=' you seriously took the time this morning before your procedure and wrote a post!!!??? You are fearless. I had to be at the hospital at 6am and between 5 and 6 I was not thinking about LbT. I am sending warm wishes, good thoughts and prayers your way. Today is the first day of the rest of your life....corny, I know.

Thanks so much! I had to be there this morning at 5:45! I was so excited that I haven't slept all nigh! My husband was driving to the hospital my insurance told me to go 45 min away so I needed something to keep me focused so I didn't break down and cry!!! Crying from pure happiness of course!

How are you feeling!? I have a lot of gas pain right now, but it is more under my sternum and around to my sides under my ribs! So I am praying that everyday from here I will get better and better! Also very tired!

By the way I too have been saying that today is the first day of my life....not corny!!

Thanks everyone for your awesome comments And words of love! Y'ALL ROCK! Let's kick FATS ASS!!!!

      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.
