I would wear a really puffy grey and black coat during the winter to work, the hood was lined in grey and black fur also and I would always have it tied tight around my face because my hair was always wet. Add on the fact that I was always terribly tired I would have huge dark bags under my eyes, compiled with being pale to the point of looking like the undersides of a dead fish, and big and furry in my coat my friend at work would call me her panda bear. And she is my penguin because she was short and bigger like me. Lol but I am the only one who calls her that... Me on the other hand now EVERYONE calls me panda bear. And gets me panda stuff. Even got a panda bear footy pajamas from my mother in law. Though it kiiiinda made me start wearing make up like a girl when I had no use for it before that, just so my dark circles wouldn't be noticed as much. (That and a sleep study to see why I am always tired)

      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.
