hey guys. im sorry i haven't been around much. restarting your life is hard work dammit! :)

well, tomorrow i go to my surgeons office. i am coming up on my one year. i had my surgery on 5/5/05... i guess this will be the final weigh in. im sorta nervous and anxious. i had a goal of 100 pounds in one year, i didn't make that.......but thats okay. so long as i met the second goal that i set of 70 pounds. i had 4 weeks to loose 9 pounds to meet that goal. one of those weeks i had MAJOR pms and ate everything i walked past...so i have a funny feeling i didnt quite meet that. i am okay with it because i know no matter what tomorrow brings, i am still less than what i was when i started this adventure and i feel amazing~i will letchyall know how i make out. i would be very interested in taking my measurements again. that would be something to see....whoa~

okay all, im gonna go browse some posts that i missed while i was on hiatus.

i will talk to you all soon

      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.
