I'm so excited for you. Remember to ask for everything you need. They don't always bring stuff to you or tell you what's going on there.. but they'll help you with anything you ask for. So ask, ask, ask.

Hi LaserSkinGirl!

 

Wishing you a speedy recovery! You could be all finished by now! Funny, I just looked at your profile & saw you live in the city we want to relocate to in FL! LOL!

 

Thank you for the pics, I'm sure that makes a lot of people who are considering going down there, more at ease. I hope all goes well & that you'll be posting again in no time about how your procedure went & that you're feeling great!

 

God bless!

      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?

      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.
