Thanksgiving is tomorrow and I am incredibly thankful that I live in the first state to pass gay marriage at the ballot box!

Awesome! And I live in Iowa, where gay marriage has been legal for more than a year and no one has burst into flames yet, contrary to what some seemed to believe would happen! And I'm getting sleeved 12-11! You?

I live in Maine. We do not often make national news, let alone history lol, but this is something that most of us are pretty proud of! I am being sleeved 12/21. I feel so much better knowing that while I'm being operated on my amazing wife will be fully recognized as such while in the hospital.

Maine is beautiful and has some of he nicest people you could ever wish to meet. We have our moments now and then when you stop and ask yourself if you stepped into a time warp to the1950's lol but all in all Maine is"wicked good" stuff.

      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.
