am not sure what a turtle neck means.....forgive me for being stupid.

i want you at the dr today....if they are closed' date=' you take your happy self to the ER....no questions. if its strep or a cold or a foot fungus i dont care. but you are gonna learn that if something doesnt feel right to let the dr know.

you know i dont beat around the bush and tell it straight

and i'd expect it from anyone if i had a question.

so this lets you know i care[/quote']

Msrhonda, I hope you appreciate all the tough love advise you are getting.

These people care about your health. They are not diagnosing or giving you "when this happened to me blah blah blah..." stories. So good luck, good health, and use your head and get medical help!

      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.
