Your results are awesome! I had my surgery with Dr. Almanza on 5/10/13. Hopefully I will have similar results at 6 months.

Wow!!! That is beyond wonderful progress. Congratulations to you for your hard work.

I have been looking on this site for a couple of weeks now but just joined today because I'm sitting here driving myself crazy thinking I'm making a rash decision and not believing in myself that I can do this on my own.

The thoughts going through my head

I've lost before-I can do it again? But why do I gain it back and then some? I'm gonna kill myself trying to lose weight via surgery. Would I rather die trying to lose weight or die because I'm obese? Why am I thinking about dying? I don't have any serious health problems! I'm gonna get a blood clot. I'm losing my mind!

This is all me talking to myself and no I have no mental disorders :o This is my internal conversation these days and I'm just being honest.

This gives me hope that I am making the right decision for my future. I'll still be driving myself crazy until the morning of Oct 7th. Just hope I don't give myself a heart attack from stress because they'll still try to blame it on obesity. Jerks :)

      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.
