Thanks everyone. I've been "falling off the wagon" so to speak lately. Too much stuff that goes right through the band...egg nog, etc. Anyway, I am getting back on the eliptical and watching it come new years. I was watching a show on MTV the other day about obesity and gastric bypass. Anyway, there was a girl that was getting ready for her surgery and they showed her on a forum like this on her computer. It was so good to actually see her getting inspired by our sucess stories. I hope I am able to inspire some people pre surgery. The only thing that bothered me about the show is that some of the attitudes were that as soon as they got surgery they would magically lose the weight. I wish they knew it doesn't work that way. It takes work and alot of exercise to really achieve results. Even if you can't really exercise...you gotta do a little walking or something. Like my hubby always says, you gotta get in shape to get in shape.

You look fantastic... great bod! :whoo: I think it's great that people are able to use this tool with exercise to get their bodies back to firm. I am 52 yo so it's going to be harder for me to have that kind of body again. I'm working on it though.

      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.
