Wow! You look fantastic! Ive seen you mention some online games..along with your name, so thought you might find this interesting...I bit the bullet and stopped playing World of Warcraft when i began this process. I decided i needed to use that time to make myself move my butt more. ...was really hard and i still have "hunger pains" for it, but think it was a healthy move for me. Life was way to focused/planned around a guild run! Your progress is so very inspirational! Thanks for showing us!

I am still an avid gamer and I don't think that will ever change for me. I played my first video game at age 6 and 30 years later there's no way I can give them up. Prior to surgery if you had asked me to give up food or games, food would have come first. I actually gave up WoW after Cataclysm. I've been playing Guild Wars 2 and Borderlands 2 these days, both of which are pretty low commitment, though I know I'll end up raiding again at some point. I like the ability to use my gaming powers to lose weight, though. I have a PS2 and PS3 with multiple versions of DDR, so I can game and exercise at the same time!

      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.
