You work at Starbucks?! My sympathies! I absolutely could not work among all that yummy carb laden food all day long and not partake. I would have to come up with some Jedi mind trick and tell myself that all the food tastes terrible or something!

OMG I would be fat forever if I worked at Starbucks with just the Salty Caramel Frappachinos alone. Nevermind the CAKEPOPS.

How do you do it? lol

THEY HAVE CAKEPOPS!?! I....love......cakepops. Sorry, sweets everywhere with the holidays and I am struggling tonight. Carry on....going to go think about CAKEPOPS!

You invested in your health and in yourself with this surgery so remember who you are doing this for because you are worth it!

Its just a setback, but get back on it, you can do it!

Although I havent been sleeved yet, I have already started preparing myself mentally to give up rice post op. I know its a weakness. I know I can eat ALOT of it. I know this will be a struggle for me. We will all have our battles but we can win the war. Best of luck to you!

      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.
