What's the weather like in TJ right now?

 

Beautiful weather. Nice and sunny but just cool enough for a light sweater or jacket.

Hey all does anyone know the caloric intake range that Dr. Garcia wants his patients to follow? I can't remember.

Ok so here's a little update. Dr Luna came along with Rosie and removed the staples. Didn't hurt one bit. He gave me some wound care instructions and advised me on some dietary issues as well. Rosie called later and offered to take me shopping or site seeing but I passed. I have to be up for 6 am to cross the border for my flight at 11 am so I will rest and pack. I know when I get home the kiddos will keep me real busy. Overall my experience has been great. I was well taken care of and I really have no complaints. The entire staff of Ready 4a change has been wonderful. I pray that my recovery continues to go smoothly and I don't run into any issues (leaks, strictures, etc). I am anxious to get home to the states and see my family.

      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.
