I sure could use a good luck charm mom; my mom was going to go this journey with me but she passed away suddenly in March. Now I feel like I'm going this road alone....I could use some words of encouragement! My sleeve is July 3rd.

As someone who has lost her mom (passed in 2004) she is and will always be with you, you are never alone....when you think of her, know that she is right there with you....she has the best seat now to watch you live a healthy and happy life!

Wishing you a speedy recovery, and happiness on the "loser's bench"

you will do well....

I lost my Grandma in October and as I have my surgery Wed., I can't help but feel bad that she won't get to see me at a normal weight. I will be taking the slippers she got me before she passed though so she will be there with me in spirit. She also died suddenly. She had a kidney stone and developed sepsis in the hospital. I sure miss her.

      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.
