Hi I'm a newbie in New Haven, CT. Nov 5 will be my last nutrition class I have to attend before my paperwork is submitted for VSG approval. If all goes well my surgery will be at Yale and my surgeon will be Dr. Duffy.

I'm in Rocky Hill and would welcome meeting other sleeves. Getting together for a group walk sounds like a great idea.

We should plan a date for after the holidays to meet and walk. If it's not too cold we can walk around Elizabeth Park in West Hartford. If it is cold we can walk around Westfarms Mall. Would the weekend of 1/10-11/15 work for folks?

      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.
