Rohler' date=' what channels did you have on the tv? Or what tv shows were you able to watch. Trying to decide if I need to try to bring something to watch.[/quote']

There was a good HBO channel and a few others u should be fine. How ever I did watch movies on the plane to pass time.

Sorry I haven't posted in so long. I made it home safe and sound but what a long day of travel. We left hotel at 8 am and got home at 3:00 am well 12 am if u don't count the time change. Word from the wise: even if I think u r fine and don't need a wheel chair ( which we didn't ) GET ON IF U HAVE A CONNECTING FLIGHT WITH A SMALL WINDOW OF TIME BETWEEN FLIGHTS. We only had a 50 minute layover and if not for are wheel chair that where waiting on us we would have missed r next flight. They ran us threw the airport and we made are flight by 1 minute and I'm not exaggerating. I feel really bad for the 2 wheel chair pushers that ran with me and by friends big bodies thru the airport. Lol. So now that I have been home I have been very tired and having a really hard time eating or drinking. I did manage to get down 1 Protein Shake and 24oz of Gatorade yesterday and two Protein Shakes and 8 ounces of Fluid so far today. I will get in more fluid b4 bed but I don't know how much. I am 12 pounds since pre op diet or just down 3 pounds since surgery. But I will take that.

Congrats on the loss! I'm definitely keeping wheelchairs and layovers in mind for traveling home.

If asked, would i do it again; I would do it agin in 2 seconds flat and not change a thing. I feel good. It just seems like I am focused all day on getting in all my Fluid and Protein. I'm doing pretty good with Protein Shakes. I'm getting in a minimum of 60 grams so far shooting for 74. However, I'm not getting in as much fluid. I am pushing to get in 24 oz a day. I got in 42 oz today but boy it was a struggle. I'm never hungry and can't tell when I'm full. VERY WEIRD!! It hurts my stomach a little to eat and it helps when I stand up to eat. Cream Soups seem to be the easiest to get down but everyday gets better and better.

      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.
