I kinda played hooky today. I didn't really have anything to do at work so I didn't go and I kept my son home. Have been counting my blessings after a day of watching Netflix documentaries..always good to see something alot worse so u know just how much u do have good :) trying to be positive and waiting for the hubby to come back home hoping for any news.

Took my son to get some yogurt and was super nice. Took the chance to go also and get some more Vitamins. At Walgreens they now have diff Vitamins and also fish oil in "pearl" form. Alot easier to swallow that the big traditional fish oil. It's hot today so gonna couch surf for awhile til time to cook dinner.

I have followed my doctor's order to a t as well. However I was told that I needed to be getting about 60g-65g of Protein in and just this past week I've been getting in at least 75g and I have actually lost more weight. Im not sure what you've been told by your Nut but maybe uping your Protein might help.

Good storm is great too but when you have to head for a shelter twice and not used to this crap I get a little to anxious. I love a good thunder and lighting storm. But funnel clouds hell no. If I wanted till live in tornado alley I'd move to Kansas lol :)

Ya ive never seen a funnel cloud so they make me alittle nervous too. Weve been lucky this year so far. Havent been in the basement once yet. Every time they say it will storm, it bypasses us.

      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.
