Has anyone gone back to Mexico after WLS? My passport has me before losing the weight. I asked a TSA and she said it would be fine but didnt look at it. To change the picture you have to pay another $120! Oh well I hope they let me back in!

Denise, I had my passport done when I was -80 lbs and now all the way back up -feeling and looking like a baby seal- I travelled to Canada and the Immigration Officer went back and for between looking at me and the passport, so I asked him if he needs additional photo ID but he said "mhhh, no it's fine" LOL

I travel all the time and had been using a nearly-10-year-old passport, so I obviously had to get it renewed. The two photos look nothing alike LOL. But I never got too much crap about the old passport, it still worked fine. I got more suspicion cos of my work ID, so that one I had redone earlier this year. :D

      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.
