So I had my procedure one month ago today and I'm down 30 lbs. It has been a heck of a ride And every day gets easier and every day I feel closer to being the man I want to be. "Hope"is back in my vocabulary and for the first time in many years I'm not afraid of dying fat and alone at an early age, clothes are fitting better sleep is better and one of my diabetes meds have been DC'd so all in all not a bad month at all---keep the faith Robb.

I want to thank all of you for your words of encouragement, I'm afraid that I gave the impression that things were bad before the procedure I just wanted to express the feeling of optimism that I am experiencing now. And maybe I chose my words too hastily in my previous posting i just cant believe that i waited so long to get this done, oh well once again Thank you all for your kind support.

      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.
