Recommended Posts

I am in St. George, UT, close to 3 National Parks - Zion, Bryce and Grand Canyon. Not too far from Las Vegas either.

Hey, Lain01 - March 14th is a wonderful day to have surgery. Had mine one year ago on that date, and it has been one of the best years of my life.

I think that's a great idea. I'm having a moment today and I'd love to sit with someone who understands

I think this is a great idea! I am not sleeved yet but I am a revision from band to sleeve. I wanted to go on vacation B4 I got sleeved !! How ironic huh !!! LOL So for all of you out there who would like a VIP travel counselor who by the way "specializes" in Orlando and Walt Disney World travel packages let me know and I will be glad to show you around town !!! This is one of the things I am looking forward to .... to be able to actually "ride the rides" at WDW, Universal Studios and Seaworld.

Id like to generate enough buzz about this topic...I just think that there have been so many people that I have met on here who have and are so supportive and helpful. It would be incredible if we could get enough people interested that would like to plan for a large get together or mini vacation celebration and see how it goes..maybe make a yearly event. Im newly sleeved but this just sounds like fun to me! What do you think?

That sounds fun, great idea :)

This is an awesome idea. I'm also in Orlando near the parks. I'm pre-op (no surgery date yet) but can't wait to lose the weight so I can enjoy my favorite rides again. I love the roller coasters in Universal but haven't been on in a while for fear of getting kicked off...

      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.
