Hi I'm from the Harnett county area. I had my surgery in April 2011 at Rex Hospital in Raleigh. I have not lost very much weight due to many health conditions brought on or made worse from my surgery. I have had health issues every day since. Finally in 2014 I was unable to continue working and I am waiting on a disability determination. I think I Have finally found a Doctor Who not only listened but is doing everything he can to find out what is going on with out referring me to yet another doctor. The best part is I never mentioned to him my feelings on what maybe is going on he listened to my symptoms and the first he felt was a major issue on his list was the one thing I have truly felt the whole time.

      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.
