I received a wonderful box from my Penpal Pegi. She really paid attention to our emails and text convos & incorporated a lot of things to not only help me with my lack of energy, but also helped to inspire me. Which is even more special because we're at very different stages of our journeys.

I got a water bottle, energy and Fiber supplements, pistachios (love them!), mini spatulas, a super pretty Washington State calendar, pens, a journal, Protein Bars, mio, sugar free hard candies, little single packs of hummus (never saw those before), flavored water bottle toppers, and other things I'm sure I've neglected to mention. My favorite thing of all was the letter she sent. It's great getting to know people better through this process, sharing your successes, failures, tips/tricks, fears, hopes, creating friendships and being a support to someone else. :)

      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.
