Goodluck!!! I have 2 weeks and 1 day...so I will be right behind y'all!! I will say some prayers for all of you for tomorrow. You are doing something that will change your life forever...you are going to get healthy!!

Seems everything I do I think...this is the last time I will ever do this at this weight. Today I took kids to Water spray park and had to hide my body with cover ups over my swim suit. LAST TIME!!! Think of all the great things you will be able to do without fear, without exhaustion and without shame.

It is our time to do great things and live the life we want to live. food is now fuel....only fuel to live.

So proud of all of you and cheers from Texas!

      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.
