I am doing really well, no nausea, just a little sore. Much easier than I thought! Slept, but you know how you are always woken up at night in hospitals, my room mate just had WLS but gastric bypass and she had it a day earlier but has much more pain than me. All in all great so far. Had my surgery with Dr. Craig Floch... Very happy!

Great! I have 6 more days until mine and my thoughts are all over the place. One minute I'm excited and the next I wonder why I'm putting myself through yet another surgery. I just want the day to be here so I can stop thinking about it and second guessing everything. Have you been to many of the support group meetings. I wish there were more of them in the Enfield area.

I only went to 2 support groups. I found it to be beneficial. I started a new job (2nd shift) so I won't be able to go to any more support groups unless they offer them during the day.

That's a shame. I don't drive at night so I have to rely on my family to take me. I've only been to two but wish it were more.

      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.
