Orchidfan and I have made it to Mexicali and had a wonderful dinner last night with her father. Today is the day. We are at the hospital and are waiting to go in for our VG. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers. I hope this comes out on the forum clear as I'm typing it onto the site with my blackberry. Hope we are both online later with our progress.

Yep, your message is on the forum. We are all cheering for you, and I know you will do great. I had my VSG done there 6 days ago and am feeling great!

Best of luck to you, and keep us updated on your progress!

Yah for Trudy and Ivy!

I hope to hear from you soon. I am putting my bags in the car in a little while. We have to leave here at 3:30am to get to the airport on time.

I hope to see you tomorrow walking the halls. Hugs, Judy

Thanks for the update - by now you are out of surgery - perhaps both you and Trudy are both out of surgery - and in recovery - we will look forward to updates from both of you -- be sure and look for Judy tomorrow while you're wandering the halls! Keep us posted!

I am thrilled for you guys, and jealous that three of you get to meet. One of these days, we are going to have to plan some sort of meet up. I think it would definitely be a blast.

I'm out and on the road to losersville. We will all have to try and set up maybe an annual weekend. Hey Vegas would be a great start! I haven't heard from Orchidfan sees diagnol across the hall. I was the last procedure so I'm sure you all will be hearing from her soon. Well I think that is about all I can do think I need to get some sleep. Thank you all for you support we both appreciate it. Judy if I'm not out wandering the halls I am in room 27 see you soon.

Glad to hear everyone is out of surgery and recovering - sleep when you need to and then walk, walk, walk ...we'll look forward to seeing your posts when you're up to it.

Tell Judy we all say "Hello" and that we'll look forward to hearing from/about her when she's feeling up to it!

      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.
