Just had My surgery this morning. Feeling okay, mostly tired some pain. Tried to get up and walk and walked around about 20 steps bc my legs were really wobbly and unsteady.

Glad you're feeling okay. I know it's tiring and hard. Don't overdo it and remember, slow n steady wins the race.

1Day, glad to hear from you. So glad you're doing better each day. Mines tomorrow so you gave me some encouragement.

Superfab you will do great. Regardless of what kind of surgery we might have... those first 4 or 5 days are terrible so why should this one be any different? Right? Let us hear from you when you feel up to posting. I'll say a pray for you.

Yes! I texted my BFF and asked her why no one told me I was so fat. She was like, I mean don't you look in the mirror? I mean not to be mean. (She's bigger than me so I didn't take offense) I was like yeah, from the head up, or from the front. Never the side or back! I avoid it! Hah. But yeah. I will be cutting my head off for sure.

Buahahaha!!!! Love having silly friends!

Yes. Thank goodness. She's actually doing a variation of my diet, too. Though she's skinny. Lol. And it also helps that she is the little sister of my BFF that had the surgery in December. It's also why we live together so well. I've known her since she was 4. Haha.

I don't know! The kicker is BOTH little sisters are skinny. Go figure. I'm a lonely only child. A&l thought Katie (my roommate) is almost like a little sister since I've known her since she was 4. So 23 years. Damn that makes me feel old. Hahaha.

Oh gosh. Yeah. My little brother is 23 and when his friends come around and I hear about them graduating college or getting engaged or something I feel old too.

      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.
