I can't imagine anyone doing better than you have, not based on the weight you've lost (which is awesome) but based on the things you've succeeded in changing about your life. You inspire me every time I read one of your posts! Nervous, schmervous! :D

Your Dr. should be very happy with your success... As you know it's not easy by any stretch of the imagination..but as you say if you Want TO you can do it... losing as much as you have is a big deal... Thanks for what you do...

You'll be fine! I've felt like a bit of a failure for my Doc, I mean, nothing spectacular as far as weight loss but on the other hand I remind myself in 6 years of meds/dieting/starving/working out I couldn't break the 200 mark and my weight just kept creeping up. I'm finally seeing results and feel great. An anniversary won't be stopping me from getting healthier and in that I will always consider this sucessful! I'm hoping to be around 170/175 by anniversary...counting down! Good luck everyone!

      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.
