Awe girl!! I bet you are starting to get scared. I would be too! But look at all you been through with no real problems and a positive attitude to boot!! :) I think you are gonna be just fine. Always know you can come here for support. Do you have someone going with you and all that there?

My daughter is driving me and my dad will meet us there. I just don't understand why some people have to continually be tried in their life. One thing on top of another.

Thank you very much and good to know about the papaya enzyme. Was just checking.

I'm just scared cuz I hate to have this other surgery and my daughter lose me. My dad promised me he would do everything to keep ex away from her since he hasn't had her best interest and only cares for himself. That made me feel better. But I know not having it is pending cloud of doom over my head.

Gen, if you haven't had a negative reaction to anesthesia before, chances are, you won't this time. You are going to be fine. :)

I know it. I've felt the same way. My Mom always says that we are like raw diamonds and the more trials and tribulations we go thru the more we get "polished", until we are brilliant, beautiful gems! Lord I hope it's true!!

I'm 6 weeks out and have lost 28. I'm a slow loser but 9 to lose to onederland. If it weren't for the stall, I would have hit it before next surgery, Jan 31. That was my goal. But oh well, need a new goal now.

It's because you are strong and can handle it. Prepare yourself mentally for a good surgery with a positive removal of all the things that need to get out. Sending good thoughts your way!

      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.
