It depends ont he Border Patrol, some let you slide with only DL and BC. If thats all you have plan to go to the airpost 4 hours ahead of your flight and you are subject to a fine of $150. Some still go that route because its rare that they say anything!

Please do not spread false information about passports. For most questions you can go to www.travel.state.gov. You can also call any land port of entry or airport to talk with a Customs and Border Protection Officer.

I am leaving on May 26 and still don't have the passport. My BC and DL match with the same name. My friend that is going with me also doesn't have a passport.

Ginny, I guess that might work...I've just heard horror stories about people being delayed coming back over the border and missing their flights. Hopefully it works out

What I was told when I got my passport is that they cant keep you from reentering if you're a citizen...but that it can cause a delay of up to 24 hours if you dont. She said usually the wait is minimal...but no guarantees.

      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.
