Hey Jess, just wanted to tell you that it's good to see you on the boards again. I'm so sorry that you and your husband are dealing with this rough patch. To put it mildly, a rough patch.

I know that many slips fix themselves, and by going unfilled for awhile really helps that process.

Tell your husband to stop being such a baby about needles ((((((hugs)))))) I mean, if I can do my own blood draws then he can face a few shots.

Courage and Strength (((((Jess! ))))))

Jess~

Nice to see your name when I checked in here...and so sorry to hear what you've been dealing with. I'll be sending good thoughts your way regarding the slip and praying for you and your husband both as you cope with the MS. It sounds like he's doing his best to stay positive.

Emily

Hi Jess, It's good to see you back on the board - we missed you! I'm so sorry that you and your hubby are having such a rough time. I'll be sending positive thoughts your way, hoping that the band repositions itself and that DH continues to improve without injections. (((HUGS)))

      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.
