Cool, I'm sure will cross paths. I'm on Clear Liquids as well and luckily I live alone so I don't have to be tempted by cooking food. I going straight to the hospital tmw and probably won't be at the Lucerna until Wednesday. I've been to New Orleans once and had a great time and stuffed my self from all that good food, I'm flying in from Atlanta. I'm so ready to start my sleeve journey.

Hey Lady! Good Luck to you - I know all about that Louisiana food, its my favorite. Along with Mexican, Italian, sushi, and....shoot everything's my favorite, which is why I'm in the predicament I'm in. I go to New Orleans just about every year for the Essence fest, and I remember feeling so crowded and stuffed in the seats at the Superdome. I affirm that this year I will have room to spare!

Update us when you get a chance.

      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.
