I'm July 11!!!! We need to keep up with one another. This is a journey I've been waiting for for about 10 years!!!

Good luck ladies! My surgery was 10/6/10 and its definitely a long haul but worth it. It was the first my very first surgery EVER! Talk about scared and nervous! But came home same day and walked one mile the very next morning!! You will all do very well. Just remember its not an answer to all, it's a tool.

Thank you! Wow, a mile?!?! I pray that I will be able to do the same. I think the liver thing just is really messing with my head right now.

      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?

      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.
