@Soccermomkerry u will okay. Gods speed. When i first seen gorecki in sept 2011 it took me more than a year to get sleeved on 10/18. So everything will be okay. Just try not to miss any appt with your PCP

My progress is great outside of sipping on everything I have been coming along great I went to the nail salon I did take 2 weeks off work but I will be returning Monday. The nurses and staff at Methodist were great they encourage you to walk and helped me so much the only thing I hated was the pressure cuffs on my legs ugggggh I wanted them off so bad I started walking immediately just to have them removed now 20 lbs lighter

      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.
