Can I add something to this request. I always sign my name to my posts -- although it is in my username so I'm sure people could figure it out. I think it is much more friendly and personal. Most people here never use their name which I find awkward when responding to someone -- I'd like to be able to address the person or say hello to the person, especially considering that posts are often quite personal in nature. I've been here for 6 months and have seen many people I feel like I know but I have no idea what their names are. Am I the only one who feels this way? Maybe some people want to remain completely anonymous? Anyway, just a suggestion.

I wouldn't mind posting before & current pics to my profile, but at this time it is not possible to do so from a mobile device. I know Alex & his team are in the process of writing custom apps for the forums rather than using the canned ones that we use now. Maybe the custom apps will enable full site usage from mobile devices.

      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.
