Oh, ok. We drove through Waco last weekend...we were coming from Flint,Tx (a timeshare resort). Yes, I book my hotel at the Holiday Inn Express. I originally had it booked at the Hampton Inn, but cancelled it after reading that the train goes right behind it. I'm sure I'm not gonna be able to sleep much that night anyway, but I don't need the help of a noisey train. lol Where are you staying? Are you going by yourself? My husband is going with me.

I just arrived home from getting my sleeve. I could not be happier. Dr. Almanza and all his staff was wonderful. I didn't have to lift a suitcase. I met a lot of very nice sleevers and we struck up a bond. I went alone and never felt unsafe....I just tried to enjoy the experience and pretend I was on wls vaca. The weather was beautiful and I was cared for so well.

 

It did take 2-3 hours to get across the border (return) but with all the vendors it was very entertaining.

 

I splurged and got a wonderful upper body massage. Severo was my nurse and did a wonderful massage. I will have to go back when I get thin to get a strong handsome hispanic man to give me another massage. What is the saying what happens in Mexico stays in Mexico. lol

      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.
