I will be!! 15th Feb.

Cannot wait, had lots of ppl hammering me with questions about if I'm ready and telling me my life will change forever etc.

I just cannot wait to have it done, for me the questioning just makes me want it more. I know that what I'm going to go through in the next year will be hard, and possibly test my marriage and relationships with friends and family. I would just rather have 1yr of difficulties rather than 50yrs of difficulties cause I am so overweight.

I am sure you going to look amazing by June.

Vacations are going to be so much better. I cannot wait for this time next year.

We are going to Montana in August. Going to be on a kayak at some point. Hope it will be easier than when I tried it last year in Lake Placid!

      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.
