To be honest I have only told a select few in my family, a couple of my best friends and a few people where I work. I haven't decided on how/if I want everyone to know about it.

What did you decide to do?

I meant "who are you tellin" like I'm nervous too, but I don't care who I tell honestly, it's my decision and when the weight comes off ill see who's still around lol.

My family knows and some co workers, others too. I can't help myself!

Idk...I was just saying I am nervous about the nutritionist visit.

Back in September I felt like this is a personal thing that I wanted to keep private and not have anyone really know about... Then when I start seeing ppl and I'm skinnier they'll wonder what the heck happened... But recently I want ppl to know cause I'm excited about it and Idc what ppl think... Idk...

      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.
