Hi my name is Josh. I'm almost 36 (birthday is on Sunday) and i figured this year I'd get myself a present. So I'm getting sleeved on the 18th. Yeah I can't go out drinking and have any cake on my birthday, but I'm ok with that. :)

how are you feeling?

I woke up from surgery in extreme pain. I took 2 hours to get it under control. After that I moved to my room to my anxious husband. I was so drugged up and tired I couldn't talk much so I sent him home. I just got back from my 10 minute walk and I am feeling pretty good now.

Surgeon said my liver looked awesome and was smooth sailing. So far so good.

Starting weight 319

Surgery weight 303.

Good luck to all

      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.
