I just want it to be here already. I have zero patience and I'm the person who gets things done and I can't do anything to move this up :( I got fast tracked in my process with my drs cuz I was so ahead of the game with having things done! Lol he said analysts r so annoying and he wanted me off his back lol :) November 1st was when I came to the decision I was going to do this...and now here I am...21 days and 12 hours away :) how did everyone else decide they were doing the right thing? I literally woke up and it was the first thing I thought of (RNY) and it hit me that this is what I'm supposed to do. I believe God slapped me that morning and said "wake up!! This is your path that I have been pointing you towards and you have been ignoring!!" Lol!

LoL I've been waiting since my Dr faxed in the referral for this surgery: Dec 2011!!!! Patience?? I have Plenty!

I actually saw a Dr about the RNY back in 2000 but decided against it bcs I wanted kids first… this time around I decided enough is enough. My son is (now 12) and I've missed tooooo much with him. I "dieted up" to 330 lbs and I'm done! Time to put life in order.

I know the feeling. I am 5'5" and currently weigh 322lbs. Failure is an fear as well as the excess skin. I plan on staying as focused and motivated as possible. I want to gain my life back and really live.

I think a lot of us share the same fears but that's why we're here… to help support each other and keep us focused and positive about our lives ahead. I'm 5'1" and a half (that's right, the HALF Matters! LoL) and I weighed a high of 330. Currently I'm at 312-314. I'd like to get to 130. That's my ultimate goal but if I could reach 150 I'd still be happy :-)

Does anyone else find themselves wanting to eat more than they had been before? I feel like I am constantly eating since I got my date....

Heck yes. I thought it was just me.

Someone on another forum described it as being as though you are in mourning for your existing lifestyle.

Me too. I could put on a lot of weight before surgery at this rate. My doc doesn't require me to do liquid diet or lose weight before surgery. But somehow I think that has translated in my head to freedom to act a fool! I think I need the doc to put his for down with me and hold me accountable.

I am hoping for a march date! I submit to insurance tomorrow and my ins coordinator at my surgeons office is going to give me a "dummy" date in hopes the insurance company approves in a decent amount of time. I'm praying for 2nd-3rd week of March!

I started the pre op early to shed some weight before surgery, and I fell OFF the wagon last week! lol! So yes, I've had that. I've decided to start with a clean slate on Sunday! I could beat myself up or I can just keep on truckin, I know it's a process, and we'll get there!

      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.
