Thank you for the message. Dr Patterson was superb about my care. I have the two stents in. My kidney function is near normal. Things are moving in the right directions :)

How are you doing? Have a Happy Christmas?

Best,

Sannah

I am glad to hear things are looking up :) our Christmas was nice and I was able to eat small amounts of everything I wanted and still managed to drop lbs so there is something to look forward to! I am going to try to post my first before and after for you later today. Hopefully I can figure it out?!? My sw was 268 and I was 209 today :) I hope you are able to Celebrate a late Christmas with your family :) I really liked the pumpkin pie Protein Shakes, they were alittle like a burgerville pumpkin milkshake very wintery ;) salpal and i were talking yesterday and when you are up and about again we would love to get together sometime, maybe have an Oregon vst get together :)

      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.
