I'm back. Feeling for the most part a bit normal part of myself. I'm having a harder time getting back on track with dietary intake. I have a lot of emotional eating temptations right now. I somehow have managed to lose a pretty big chunk this last month at least weight wise. My belly is starting to go back down which for me is a relief in more ways than 1. Still recording my fitness pal food logs but I really wouldn't want anyone seeing what all I'm having. I'm now 14lb away from my personal goal after weighing this morning and it's the biggest positive I feel right now. My surgeon had set a bit wider if a goal but I had a number in mind I thought would make me pretty thrilled. Missed y'all. Hope y'all are all doing well

Lucky you. I cant have anymore before surgery IF I even ha e surgery. I still havent heard from the surgeon that I was referred to that is covered at 100% by insurance. I am getting so frustrated. Wod like to know if im having surgery in December or not. There is alot to get ready and figure out. If the new surgeon wont do the surgery, I'm gonna stay with the first one. Just wish I'd hear something so I know.

      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.
