I know Diva!!! I'm looking for someone to teach my classes for at least 4 weeks in January.. I thought about working 3 days a week after my 2-week Holiday break.. Last night my doctor was like, NOPE!! You need time for yourself and you're gonna take it.. I can't even work from home!!! LOL... But, I'm okay w/ that...

I actually cooked this week...no eating out, low carb, high Protein meals... Having a good week so far!!!

Glad you're feeling better!!

I'm just dealing w/ the emotional part of this weight loss journey... I didn't think I had very grandiose expectatins about weight FLYING off.. but I did.. and I'm struggling w/ disappointment about not losing a the amount of weight I was a first... Then, I can't work out yet...BUT... I'm embracing my process and enjoying the journey moment by moment!!...

Thanks for your encouragement and responses...

      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.
