Live longer, see my 4 kids grow older and graduate collage and have kids of there own.

To be able to walk down the street unnoticed, for wearing a nice bathing suit, to enjoy my life and not fester in my own self pity for being big!

To fit in to a chair and not feel like I have crammed every being of me in it!

And to do something amazing to Celebrate a new life and to be lucky to have it!

And no more sleep apnea.

As a nurse it would be easier to stand for long periods of time, bend and lift if I were lighter. Hoping I'm taken more serious at work too.

I can't wait to get on rides at amusement parks, get on a plane again, go on bus trips to NYC and DC etc. When we go to ball games trying to squeeze through the turnstyles is a challenge too. I would love to run 5ks an half marathons too!

I just want to have a long healthy and active life.

      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.
