Don't cry, but I understand your nervous. Its a major life change. This time for the better!!! I love what a FLORIDAYS said, "see you on the other side". It will feel so good to be in control. That is what my band gave to me. You will be ok, and each day is a journey. Take it one day at a time and enjoy your new chapter in life. It can only get better for you. Imagine a year from now, we all know how fast time goes, just think postive and your dream will be yours. Keep us posted and never be afraid to spill your feelings. That is what we are here for. To support one another. AS we all know ones who don't struggle with weight don't understand. The day I know I was discriminated against for a job I felt like I was going shribble up and die. I will not let my weight define who I am. I know who I am, I am a good person, good wife, good mom, a good friend and try the best I can. Thats all we can ask for ourselves. I was blessed to have the lap band and insurance paid for it. I look forward to hearing from you. Will be thinking of you in the days ahead. I JUST LOVE THIS SITE....

Don't cry from being nervous - if anything, cry for being so excited to start your new life! This whole process is life changing. Enjoy it! You will be fine!

      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.
