Today I Am Thankful For....



Recommended Posts

Thought it might be fun to start a new thread where each day we could post one thing we are thankful for. Some days this may seem cheesy but all in all we all have so much to be thanful for and what if someone who is having a bad day stumbles upon something we said and it helps them through their day??

So, today I am thankful for......

Go you!! I don't think I felt like doing anything at all until day 5- and cooking certainly wasn't one of the things I did that day!

What a great idea! I am thankful for SO many things it is hard to choose just one......

But today I am offering thanks for my husband of 42 years! He did not want me to persue W.L.S., was not in favor of it at all. But since I made the decision has been so supportive! I know he loves me, cause he supports me even when he doesn't agree with me or what I do.

We have had some problems lately, but we are both working hard to overcome them, and I am thankful for that also.

I have been truly Blessed! I am Thankful!

      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.
