I have my operation this coming Thursday. Right now I am doing a lot of eating for the memories. It is kinda like I am on vacation and will start work next week. I want to get all the good stuff in that I can.

I am supposed to eat low fat cottage cheese and yoghurt for one week prior to the op. This is gonna work out okay because I just ate the last of the President's Choice icecream, and the high-fat cheese last night. (I am a dairy freak by the way.) They didn't give me any other instructions. Tonight, I plan to eat 2 filet mignons. I am defrosting them right now. I will also eat diced new potatoes, with their tender little skins left on, sauteed in olive oil with fresh rosemary, hot peppers, and onions. And I might have a beefsteak Tomato as well.

Yup, I know, I know, all of you hate me right now but the reason that I am racking up the ole food memories is because I will be living on liquids for 3 weeks, mushies following that, and after that will be a whole new way of eating solids. This is Green's good-bye tour around the food court. It's strange, you know, but along with the rebirth that the band will give me, and I know that it will, I am feeling that a little part of me is dying.:think It is for this reason, I guess, that I find that I am being super attentive to what's on my plate.:hungry:

But there will be the new slender Green, and I am so anxious to say good bye to quite a few pounds of the old Green, so everything is gonna be coool. (I just hope I don't ever get the slimies.:phanvan Yuck!)

Enjoy your filet tonight, eat all the things you love, you can stuff yourself, but when you do, remember that stuffed feeling, "like your the fullest person in the world stuffed", and know that you will never feel that horrible feeling again, and you'll still be eating that filet in a few months from now. How neat is that!!

That is seriously cool. Very seriously cool.

My niece who is 30 and a big grrl is interested in what I am doing. Once she gets the dollars together she would like to do the same thing. She is the only one who is supportive other than my husband, and he always supports my schemes. I haven't told him about my post-op diet yet. Heh heh. That boy is going to get quite a shock when he sees me sucking back liquids and nothing but.

      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.
