So i read alot about how unsapportive husbands and family in general are about us getting our surgerys.. Im so sorry to those who have to go thru that :( but i wanted to start a thread to say thanks to those who are supportive! My husband is 41 i am 27... Yeah he robbed the craddle lol ;) he is in the army and not overweight. He met me when i was overweight but not this big. He has loved me unconditionaly! He was amazingly supportive of me when i decided to get this surgery done and has been my rock thru it all! We have 8month old twins and a two year old and he has been amazing with taking care of them while ive been recovering. The sweet heart even avoids eating around me so i dont feel bad :) and bless his heart he has been drinking those awful protien shakes right along with me! Hes my best friend and i just wanted to share how great he has been! He also tells me everyday that no matter how i look im always his queen :)) my family and friends that do know have also been wonderful! They check up on me all the time and everyone is so excited for my weight loss journey :) i think people know me tp well tp say anything stupid to me anyway lol. They would be shot down real fast!! So i thank god everyday for the most amazing husband and friends and family! Im so blessed!!!

that makes me smile. I am so happy for you. My Hubby is very supportive too. Not always totally understanding of the process but not negative in any way. My family has been very supportive also. And it does truly help.

      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.
