Thankfully my manager and assistant managers have been really supportive of the surgery some co workers had made the comment if u can lose it before surgery why do it then. I was like it took me 6 months to lose 15 pounds with my medical just losing isnt the only challenge

I'm not nervous yet, but I have Pre-op tests on Wednesday and I bet I'll be nervous after that! ;). I'm taking two weeks off work, but I don't have to do any lifting, so I think I should be okay.

There's a Water fountain by the bathrooms. I guess I'll be over there a lot! Lol. Its also kinda hot and I do sweat a lot. Its not going to be easy to get in what I need at work. But lucky I have 3-4 days off in a row to help keep it together

I am two weeks from tomorrow. I am super excited. I will be off for one week and will work from home the following week. I am putting in for short term disability just in case it is needed. My employer will let me work from home longer I'm sure if it is needed because they need me working. I just ordered some injury Protein and the Vitamins they sell also' date=' because I have heard such great reviews online. Hopefully they get here soon. Next week I will start stocking my kitchen and making sure the house is spotless. I will have to sleep in our guest room for a while because we have 5 dogs...[/quote']

Holy cow 5!? Yeah I'm gonna have to keep the cat and dog off of me too. I keep forgetting to order the unjury--thanks for the reminder!!

Hello everyone! I am overjoyed and elated because I was just approved by the insurance company on last Thursday. I know I will have my surgery in April and hopefully I will get my date tomorrow. I have had many happy moments in my life but this is a different kind of happiness. The kind of happiness that has me just smiling for no reason. I am so glad that I have found a place where I can share my weight loss experience with.

      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.
