Way to go. Love reading stories like this. Mt Everst will be an ant hill when you get done with it.

Good luck on your upcoming surgery. You are going to do great!

A victory is a victory, no matter how big or how small! It made me chuckle to think how much power that one little M&M has! It so easily could have slipped right in and no one would have known but you! LOL..Thats a huge step, you showed your accountable to yourself! That's a real good sign your going to be successful and accountable for your own journey! It takes some of us a much longer time to learn this! Your already a step ahead!

Thank you to everyone! It makes me feel so good to read all of the comments. I am overwhelmed by all the love and support here. I have read so many of your stories and feel so inspired by all of you. I know I will be successful with my journey and feel great knowing we are all here for the same reason supporting each other. I have a bunch of support from friends and family but I don't know anyone personally who has gone through this and could truly understand! Thanks again!! 6 days until the new banded me!!

      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.
