I will not be posting this month as the person that was supposed to contact me, did not.

I however didn't want any of you to think I wasn't following my own rules about the program by not posting a "thank you". ;)

I have the BEST pen pal EVER!!!! I got a box FULL of goodies, it has 2 boxes of pita Snacks (cinnamon and original), baby spoons (in ALL colors, loved them), a measuring tape to keep track of the immense amount of inches I will be losing, LOL, dieter's tea which I intend to start drinking immediately, sugar free hershey's chocolate, SF vanilla, and 2 liquid Water enhancers, plus the best thing in the box, a heart warming card which not only made my day, but it makes this journey that I am about to begin SO REAL!!! :D

Thanks again Laura, loved everything in my box and thanks Tasha for putting RNY pen pals together!!! May God fill you all with with many blessings... :)

I finally found this...ok so I am a little slow...lol any whooo...My penpal last month was Robin not sure what her screen name is on here.... But I got a box of wonderful goodies...special k Snacks..drink mixes for Water bottles, oatmeal, protien bars..a bunch of wonderful yummy stuff...

For those getting Ideas...I had a tricky one to buy for last month because she has food allerigies, so what I did was get her useful things that I though might help in her journey, such a notepad and pens, a special k meausing cup, Blender Bottle, drink mixes and I think a couple of other things..

      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.
