Hi,

Thanks I will never disapear from these boards. It is my way of giving back. I had some amazing mentors when I was about to do this. I had a million questions and they were always right there for me with an answer. I enjoy being able to tell my story and to help people get past their fears.

Thanks for you nice words, they mean so much to me.

Hugs,

Thanks for the sweet words. I guess I never think of myself as an inspiration. I am just a regular person, just like all of you. I have had me struggles with weight loss for many years. And this has been my GREAT success. I know in my mind that I will always be able to do this and I NEVER feel deprived. I learned that just tasting something is all I really need sometimes. I do NOT have to eat the entire thing. It is like my head is finally working with my stomach.

I want ALL of you to know that you too can have this kind of success. Keep doing what you are doing. I am always out here if you have any questions or just want to talk.

Hugs,

Suzanne

      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.
