Dr. Kim here too how are things going for you? I was sleeved about a month after you. Have you been to his support group. Just trying to find someone that has been.

Things are going great. I haven't been to any of the group meetings.

I'm in total aggrement.

Same day same place how are you doing?

Hey, I'm doing good, I have found a Protein shake that is working much better for me, so I'm meeting my Protein goal so that's great. I did get dehydrated last week and I'm still suffering from the effects of that, but all and all I'm doing really good! With pre-op I'm down about 40 lbs, how are things going for you?

Thanks Kalimom. Word down here is that it is not coming our way. Although if it changes courses we've stayed through bigger hurricanes, so we'll batten down the hatches and hang on tight.

      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.
