Ugh, small hiccup in my plans. My aunt who was supposed to go with me to Mexico cant get the time off of work. Its totally understandable and im not angry or mad or anything but just a little more apprehensive about going alone. I REALLY REALLY wish my husband was going with me but by that time he'll be working in Alaska (he leaves april 18th). Im a tough girl and I dont fear going alone, just wish I had someone to be there for me when I wake up...

Anyway....still looking for someone who will be in TJ the same time as me June 13th thru the 18th!

I am sorry to hear about your change of plans. I will be going May 10 alone too, and NJShannon might be going then to. Check out the monthly forum maybe someone else has posted there.

Goofy, what doctor are you using again? We are gonna go ahead and try to commit to a surgery date today - and maybe bumping it up a bit to June 14th.

I am with Dr Kelly! I know! I am getting confused... I saw someone suggest makina a calendar so we could keep track with eachothers dates and Dr 's. My issue is, that we are getting a settlement on june 5th, and I can't afford plane tickets until then! I priced them know at 4-5 days away and they are insane! Like 450, instead of 170. So that's the whole reason for the switch. I hate to put it off even one extra minute, but dang I can't justify that extra cost, when, at two weeks out, they Go back to the lower price....

Hope you are done and not having a rough time. Be sure and post when you get time. June 27th is getting closer for me - I screwed up and thought I read the "no ibuprofren" was the 3 days prior but now I see it's 2 weeks so OOPS - I always take ibuprofren for morning headaches so no more now I guess til after surgery.

      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.
