Thanks guys for all the well wishes! One question: A lot of people have noticed at work (I am a teacher so I just came back yesterday 40 lbs lighter hee hee). I haven't told anyone at work. Some are asking how I did it but I don't want to talk about it. I feel like Star Jones- what should I say?

wow to everyone. that is awesome. Gary your numbers are very impressive. look at you go man. you must be very pleased..

i usually tell the truth about what is happening to me because there might be someone out there that has thought about wls and just don't know anyone or anything about the surgery. if i can help or inspire someone to take the leap of courage off of the diet rollercoaster then so be it. i am a very open book person anyway. i guess that comes with working in the medical field. i wouldn't be able to keep this a secret. i hope you guys that are keeping it a secret can and will. you have more will power than me. good luck to all of you sleevers..

      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.
