I'm not gonna lie to you guys I have yet to exersise lol smh it's SO FREAKING HARD to stay motivated when your by yourself most of the time. You would think because I'm not working I'd have all the time in the world (which I kinda do) to join a gym or exersise at home or something but I honestly would just love a actual workout buddy or somebody or anybody whose goin though this with me .. Everyone Needs support and I have friends but there all really skinny and then there just my grandma whose here with me but can't really do much..ugh! so yea :/ but anyway thanks for reading my post!!!! I hope I can find a new workout buddy here in Philly or just a new friend I can vent to from time to 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.
