Hi Ladies, I am so happy I made that post "Let's get this ..whatever I put... lol, I seen a lot of responses. Unfortunately I got injured in my job, it's a matter of life or death :( so I have been trying to keep positive and hoping all is good at the end of my treatment. Today I got my liver results back and they are good! Sounds sad but when Dr said, no liquor due to meds could lead to liver damage, I started to crave cold drinkys especially when we had those crazy hot days!

Anyways, been so busy with driving my mom around doing her pre op stuff!!! Also dealing with all the fun crazy graduation for my daughter <3

I have been super busy! But before all this crazyness, I was planning in my head a "Sleeve-lebration", I was hoping to do some kind of get together, perhaps in August? somewhere in the middle? some of us live in south side area, and some in north side area, why don't we just meet somewhere near downtown? Perhaps a picnic, we could all bring healthy Snacks, fruits, appetizers, etc. We can plan it better when the time comes. We can have clothes swap, even jewerly, or whatever we can to recycle?

What does everyone think? I am open for suggestions :) Please chime in with anything :) You can follow me on Facebook, just hit me a message saying you are from this group and i will accept you. I don't accept strangers but you guys are not strangers anymore :)http://www.facebook.com/#!/lety.ramirez.509

p.s majority of the peeps do not know I went through with the surgery, you know how people are :(

So excited, hopefully everyone would love to join in a meet up, I know I do!

      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.
