:dance: Thank you..

You must feel so good losing all that weight:clap2:

So u have lost likle 10 pounds a month? sounds good to me..

I was at the dr's office the weight was 261 with shoes got home and I was 257 without shoes like this better:p it's a new digital scale my daughter bought for me for my journey..:nervous

I am so excited I cannot believe it..I am glad I live in Massaschusetts it sounds like we have more support then other cities like NY some strange stories I have read on another site..

We really get alot of support from each other on the sites then we kind of do in person at times...last support group I want to there was a man that was really being a jerk and too bad she didn't throw him out..

But besides all this experience is positive for me I wish to be around for while:girl_hug:

I will keep in touch with this group on my awaited journey..:)

      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.
