How are our March 4 friends feeling? I pray for peace and calmed nerves as you enter this new phase. I look forward to celebrating with you when you are on the other side. I look forward to joining you.

Next Friday is my date- so far the only one on the 8th. From what I understand' date=' gas pains seem to be the overwhelming complaint. I think I shall come armed with liquid simethicone!:-) For all of you that have had c-sections, understand the importance of the fart- becomes quite the party atmosphere as everything is back in working order!:-) So in an unusual wish for friends- I wish you many easy farts!!!![/quote']

Lol!! That's right! Praying for you all as well. Monday is a BIG day for some of us.

In honor of "MARCH" I am going to spend Saturday morning un subscribing my e mail address from all of my favorite splurge restaurants. I no longer need to know the new dishes, deserts or when their happy hour is.

I'm going to WIN! No temptation via e mail!!! :)

Hey Marchers. I've read on some of the other boards that the chewable gas meds work allot better than strips or liquids for people post surgery. Just FYI.

Yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay yay!!!

I have finally been approved by my insurance. They said the 14th March but my surgeon only does the surgery on Tuesdays. So I'm hoping now that I have Authorization I can get it changed to the 12th. But the 19th will be fine too.

Been a long time coming.

      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.
