Definitely take your laptop and some DVDs to watch. It gets really BORING in the hospital room and hotel at times with limited television channels in English. :)

I am scared too, I am going in September. So far it is to Dr. Kelly but waiting on a friend to get back to me, they are buddy buddy with the surgeon in their state and they are going to see what kind of deal they can cut there. I told them I need to know soon because I have to book!!!!

Since you are taking your laptop please keep us posted, I have a smart phone but don't think I will be able to post when I do go. I could always borrow a laptop from my daughter but it is more stuff to lug around and Facebook is enough for me just have to let my family know that I will be ok.

Yeah, see what that other deal is like. I don't blame you. My STUPID phone has no service whatsoever once I get down South to the border (I'm in LA).. So I'll be lugging my laptop. I'll keep you updated!

Well mine worked in Dominican Republic when I was on vacation, they said as long as no calls are excepted or made and no texting I won't be charged for roaming etc... You just need to hook up the wifi as you would a laptop and go on things like Facebook or msn.

      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.
