Homecoming date set



Recommended Posts

I just got off the phone with John, and he is out of Afghanistan. He's still in transition, but will definitely be home this week. We finally have a real date, and least to say once this next weekend rolls around, I don't think I'll be on much. I have so much to do, and not a lot of time to get it all done.

Thank you to all of you for your support, prayers and good thoughts. We're in the homestretch, and it's almost over. Keep praying for safe flights, and no further delays. My heart is full of joy again ! ! !

Tiff, I am so happy for you! I was worried every time I hear the news and find the powers-that-be talking about needing "more troops" in Afghanistan...was so afraid that they would extend his stay again. since he is enroute, that is a great sign that it will really happen.

Have loads of fun!!!!!!!!

      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.
