Recommended Posts

Hi guys... Dont get me wrong I love being referred to as Flabuless cause hey...I am! but its always nice to be addressed to as my first name Becky...so I thought I would start this thread so that...those of us who haven't revealed our first names yet can...and also so that we can hear some of the meanings behind our unique user id's that we have chosen.

I'll start us off

First name: Becky

user id?: well mine I think is obviously cause I'm fabulously flab-u-less!

So come on guys...lets reveal the secret behind our names.

Hi Becky,

My name is Julie and I attend TWU (Texas Woman's University). Jules is of course a nickname.

BTW, I think Flabuless is a cute name.

Hi Becky,

I am Susan.

My online ID is supergenius because I like Wile E. Coyote and he refers to himself as not just a mere genius, but a supergenius. That cracks me up. Plus every time I get a big head it seems I get run over by an ACME rocket sled, just like Wile. And 8.18 is my 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.
