I, was showing my daughter the medical ID Bracelet I planned on ordering for myself today. She said, she was so proud of me for taking charge of my health, that the bracelet would be her treat. My baby said, "pick out whatever you want. You deserve it"! Well, there came the waterworks!!! She was and is my support person. I'm so proud of the women she has become! But, she is still my baby girl. Now, she's getting a little thick, so I want to be an example for her on embracing a healthy lifestyle!

It's for a medical ID tag Bracelet. I'll post the link as soon as I can. I'm still learning how to use this phone, lol!!! My daughter pushed me into the smartphone age, SMH!!! If someone can post the link for me to "Lauren's Hope", I would really appreciate it! It might be 2013 before I can figure out how to do it, lol!!!

      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.
