Hey chickee. . .

Surgery is fast approaching, and I wanted to post here just to give you a little boost of confidence. I hope you are doing well, and remember I'm just a text, phone call or email away.

I've been slow on emails because my IPhone needs to be updated. But, my texting is back up and running.

I hope the pre-op diet is going well for you. If you need anything, let me know.

I'm cheering for you from the sidelines ! ! !:w00t:

Wisconsin_Gal, where are you from?

I'm from Green Bay and am going to be getting the sleeve done on April 15th by Dr. Kemmerling here in Green Bay. He is from NEW Surgical Associates.

Your post looks to be from December. Did you have your surgery? Was it done here in WI? How are you doing?

I'd love to talk especially if you had the work done here! :)

Kara,

I am back to lurking. I haven't had a lot to say lately.

I live close to Platteville, WI and I had my surgery done in Dominican Republic late December 09. To date I have lost 40 lbs

If you would like someone to talk to, I would welcome the opportunity to help out a fellow sleever-to-be.

Where are you located? I'm in central WI. I'm four months out, 3.5 lbs from my surgeon's goal. I plan on losing a little more, but not much, 5 - 7 under what he set! I am sure you are at goal now. What are you doing to maintain Stacie?? I'd love some hints!!

      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.
