300 pounds down... is great!

I started to read Holly's blog pre-op and continue to read it now. She is truly inspiring, she is so honest, sometimes it's just heart breaking and other times, I am crying tears of joy reading her words.

Your poor husband! I have to tell you though I absolutely adore your blog. Your way with words makes any situation comical. I felt bad for laughing at that post but since he is OK now I only feel half bad.

Thanks for all the sweet words! They help. It takes courage to share this journey publicly, but I hope it helps others.

So excited for 300 pounds down! Thanks for info!

To find blogs, I often just type in the title to google. The blog should be one of the first hits.

I've noticed, just like everything else in my life, I'll find a cool blog that i want to read but never follow up after a week to check back and read it. Sometimes email subscriptions work.

Maybe I'll start a blog and link up with some others. Hmmm.... I'll be right back. ;)

      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.
