Recommended Posts

is on the bed and right now I am just throwing stuff in it. No organizing at all right now!!! I still have 19 days:21hours:24mins:09seconds before we leave, so there is definitely time. :D

I have only put two loose fitting dresses and a few toiletries in there for now!!! Just super excited to say that it is finally May and that these days are going to go by so fast, I hope...

I am actually shocked that I am just now pulling out the suitcase. I am usually packed and ready to go a month in advanced when it comes to travelling... :wub: anyway, I'm babbling!!!

thanks for letting me babble!!

nope definitely not just you. I have to go to the store to pick up some things... but I am going to wait for that because I know if I go now, I will make a few trips there between now and then and I dont want to go crazy... I am packing light...and since my mother and I are only taking ONE bag, I have to save room for her :D

My mom and I are both just taking one carry on a piece - I'm going to take a light backpack and I'm finding that I really don't need much at all. I wish I could take my body pillow, but it's a little too big for my backpack :) I'll be really missing it 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.
