Congratulations on surviving cancer! I am an ovarian cancer survivor myself.i'm a 30 year survivor come this November.

Due to my other disabilities I am unable to participate in the special events like relay for life but I'm hoping once this weight is off, I'll be cane free and able to participate in a relay for life.

Wow, 30 years!! That is great!! That would be so great to get some weight off and have the ability to participate. There was a woman there today who spoke at the opening ceremony who was diagnosed with a brain tumor 5 years ago. She was never able to walk after getting off treatment (3 years ago), but last year was able to. She said she was the last person (by far) to finish but she was so proud (as was everyone ) that she finished. She walked again today. I hope that will be you!! Good luck and congratulations on being a 30 year survivor, that is special!!!

      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.
