Clear and sunny in LA?!!? You scored! (used to live in So Cal from San Diego to Santa Barbara) I will chose to see this as a most excellent omen for the rest of your trip.

Thanks for sharing and may the force be with you.

Best place to go in SD for site seeing to get an amazing view would be crown point. Check it out! Its so pretty. Best beach would be mission beach. Best thing to at night is go downtown to the Gas Lamp district. Its packed with people walking around, shops, resturants, so much fun. Plus all of that is FREE haha

I know it is!!! I had a really slow first week from all the fluids!! But it seems to be picking up... But best part is I am getting the hang of being sleeved, I went out for dinner for the first time and ordered French onion Soup ate the broth and a bit of cheese and was done, not exactly sure how I knew I was done, but I did!! It took me as long to eat the Soup as my family to finish their meals!! It was not so bad!!!

I am going to increase my exercise this week!! I want out of the 200s by my 40 birthday!!!

      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.
