Thank you soooo much everyone! You are all sooo sweet!

My Big Day-I still eat carbs, it's really the sleeve tool that helps me with Portion Control, and for me I think that's been the key to my weight loss. I do try and get the Protein in before carbs though. I'm sure if I did watch my carb in take, I would probably be doing way better :), but no complaints here, I HIKED THE GRAND CANYON (sorry I just can't believe it LOL). I am not consistent with exercise. I love hiking. I hiked a total of 9 miles since last Saturday and plan to do so more this Saturday. I did some swimming yesterday and today, and lots of walking shopping, so that's typically how I get my exercise in.

Becca-awww love ya too sweetie!!!

To all that said I look happy...I AM SOOOOO HAPPY!!!! I want to shout it from the mountain top :) LOL

You look great! I also loved hearing that you had an "What have I done to myself" moment in the hospital! It is just what I needed to hear! Luckily with each passing day, that feeling is less and less. Congrats on your success!!

      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.
