To the original poster....there is nothing wrong with being a big girl and that is definitely not a reason for you to think that people wont want to "give a crap about you." Some people are built for comfort and some people are built for speed. To put it another way, some people want a small fast uncomfortable Miata 2 seater and some people want a smooth riding Cadillac. Personally, I'm a Cadillac kinda guy.

My 2 cents.

Thanks to everyone for your encouraging words!!!!!!! You have made me smile this morning. I have been out of state for a week and the family I stayed with did not own a computer!!! I was shut off from the world for a week in Chillicothe, Ohio.!!! But I now have a beautiful new little baby girl, Herbie, a 17 year old Yellow naped Amazon parrot. The owner is an old friend of mine who just can't care for this spoiled rotten "tempermental three year old with a knife attached to her face" LOL!!! I have one bite mark on my left shoulder from her getting startled. My mom got it much worse. She offered Herbie a bite of egg and got the skin ripped off her right thumb instead. Bad birdie!! LOL!

Anyway, Keep a look out for my updated picture, I am forwarding it to have it posted!!!!!!

      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.
