So I went to the dr's today for my physical and I was amazed to find out I was down 43 lbs in 30 days today! Not only that but my A1C was 12 about 3 months ago and it is now at a 6.9! I was still a little anemic and my Vitamin D was a little low so I have to add some more Vitamin D and some iron! It was such a positive appointment and for me it is usually very predictable and I normally would get meds added and adjusted but not this time I had meds removed! Thank you all for being so supportive and helpful...

I'm so glad about your weight loss. Keep up the good work. It's always a pleasure to hear when someone gets off of medication. It's time we start treating our bodies right.

      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.
