Just turned 31 two weeks ago, and my initial consultation with the surgeon is next week.

I feel like I wasted my 20's being overweight, and limited.. looking forward to spending my 30s enjoying life instead :)

Hello! I'm 31, Class of '98. No surgery date yet. I'm still going though all the pre-op stuff. I hope to have surgery by the end of the year.

I remember the day last year when my "Scene" son came blaring through the doors excited about a buffalo plaid shirt to wear over his Ts. Oh, it was the biggest thing.. I about died laughing.. I think he thought Fall Out Boys invented it! Haha

I turned thirty-eight this month.. People tell me that I don't look it, and I always reply, "well, no... it's because I am CUTE!" Ha! ;p

Hi! :P Not 30 yet....but I will be next month, so I figured I better go ahead and claim this room!

Welcome! Nice to have you here. I am on the other end of the 30s and I guarantee I will not be entering the 40s room until the day after I turn it. ;)

HI everyone im 32 and ready to change my life. I was thin thru my teens until I had my 1st daughter and decided to get the depo shot forbirth control at age 20. Ever simce then Ive been battling with my worst enemy FAT !!!!! I had my last child 7 yrs ago and even gained more. I recently broke my ankle about 5 months ago and that was hell. A broken ankle hurts more than child birth and i tell you girls I had both my girls natural with no main meds at all. I blame the break on my weight. I was in a wheelchair for 3 months and even gained more weight :(. SO im definitely ready for a life change.

      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.
