Thanks so much Kelli, I thought I was going to pass out today at the pre opp appointment. They told us we would have to give each other injections for the next 2 weeks while are here to prevent DVT because of the flights to and from Singapore. I HATE needles so needless to say I wasn't smiling. We just did it and it wasn't to bad but a huge shock. Thanks again, see how we go over the next week and if all is good if you have some free time maybe we can catch up for coffee.< /p>

I gave myself injections in the tummy many times during IVF and it isn't so bad. Usually only small needles and it only pricks for second. I am sure you will be confident in it very quickly and may even find it easier to give them to yourself. I preferred that over someone else giving them to me. Good luck for tomorrow and yes I would love to meet you both for a coffee once you are up and about.

      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.
