3. this is the year 2012

4. my surgery was on the 6 month of the 12 months in a yr (6 half of 12)

5. my surgery was on the 21st of this month flip the numbers around and u get 12!!!!!!

AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST :

6.it may sound stupid or corny but I am actually pretty happy! Today when I went to the appt I was weighed!!!! Since my surgery this past Thursday, In these past 5 days have lost a total of 12 MORE LBS!!!!!!!! bring my total to 21 lbs (again flip the #'s around) lost since the preo-op and post op liquid diet!!!!!

I got the okay today to start eating the full liquids.. for the next three days until Friday I can have, YOGURT, cREAM OF WHEAT, CREAMED Soup, Protein Shakes WITH MILK!!! BESIDES MY Water OR juice I TAKE!!!

      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.
