I'll be getting my procedure done in Cancun with Dr verboonen. So far my experience has been good with Sheri Burke, the coordinator (actually excellent). I'll let you all know more as I get there and post-op!

Best of luck to you! You don't have much longer to wait until your new path starts. How exciting! Can't wait to hear how it all goes and enjoy that beach. Soak up the peace that only the ocean can give you and be ready to tackle the world!

Thanks Miss Hope-Best of luck to you too! All of us on this post are really close! We should keep in touch. BTW, how do you like GA? I've thought about moving there from CT for a while now.

I really like the Augusta area. I am from South Carolina originally, so The South is in my blood, so to speak. My husband retired from the Navy and "real life" led us here. Have been here for a year and a half and am really starting to feel "homey". It's hot as all get out right now with no ocean breeze relief (what I'm used to!). You should vacation this way and see all Georgia/South Carolina has to offer! One visit to Savannah and you'll be hooked! LOL

Oh my gosh! It is so funny you said Savannah! That is what was in my mind....I have actually been looking at houses online in Richmond Hill!

      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.
