I know Las Vegas is a place lots of people like to visit but are there any people on here that live here? Uncle Sam moved our family here as my husband is in the Air force.....

There are tons of people that live there. I was born and stayed there for 38 years and then two years ago I moved to Texas.

Is no one responding on the regional forums?

I sat in Dr. Soong's seminar and then saw him again the day of my surgery. I was so anxious to get started and didn't want to wait any longer than I had to so I saw Brian for my consultation. I will get to see him this coming Friday for my first fill. But he has e-mailed me a few times- before and again after surgery.

Have you been to any of the nutrion/support groups yet or do you plan on it?

I want to and I know I should just a matter of getting out of the house without any kids.

      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.
