I had to sip 14cc every 15 min all day. Set an alarm on the phone when I was awake. Walk lots!!

Everyone has been telling me to walk but my stomach hurts more after I walk, I don't get it :/

You're right, I'm just ready for the days to pass by! I only took 5 days off from work but I'm thinking I'm going to throw in another week. I'm going to call HR first thing in the morning on Monday.

Thanks for your advice. I guess I'm going to have to tell people at work the reason for my absenteeism. And well, you know how people always talk crap, it's amazing what envy can do. It's all good though, when I have my hot body....then I'll really give them something to talk about :)

      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.
