Hello, May 15th is a popular date :) That's my date as well. I love the idea of it being a second birthday. I'm so ready to start this journey !

I'm sort of surprised that i'm not nervous at all... I guess it's because i've considered and researched WLS for 3 years before finally starting the process.

I'm looking forward to seeing less of me in the mirror !

Missy, that makes two of us. I told my husband my plan is to one day take all my skirts that I love wearing out of the closet and cut them in half cause there is only half of me to fit in them....lol. I'm a little nervous about the surgery, but the excitement of a new healthier me is really overshadowing that fear.

I got sleeved on may 15th. How did you surgeries go? I ended up having a hiatal hernia that my doctor fixed at the same time. I was supposed to go home yesterday but due to complications I will be in the hospital until tomorrow (at least). I'm not hungry, my kids came to see me and I ordered them a pizza I was a little nervous about it but I looked at it and wasn't interested in the slightest. I've finally been able to get some liquids down today so I'm happy. The extra air has been really hard on me anyone else had that problem?

Wow lot in common with all off you. I had my surgery on the 15th too. I walked in for preregistration at 12:30 on the 15th and walked out @ 10:30pm the same day. I went for my follow up appointment with my Dr. on the 22nd and found out that he fixed my hiatal hernia funny thing is I didn’t know I had it lol.

Well I am down 16lbs today and feeling good just tired sometimes. Hope you are all feeling great ;)

      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.
