My new life started December 30,2013. I had my ups and downs but over all I've been good. Went back to work full time just after 7 days and I glad I did because it made me busy. Well now tomorrow I start school and I am taking 6 classes. So besides working and taking care of my sleeve, I will have another thing on my plate. I hope I am not over doing it. I also workout 4 days a weeks. Don't ask how I find the time to do it.. Haha.. Just trying to graduate next December with 2 majors in law :) so excited. I wanna be a skinny bitch lawyer hahahaha .. Ok sorry don't want to sound coincided but I am just excited :)

I am craving some food so badly but thankfully I am keeping my self busy.

Good luck on all of the transitions! You sound like you are very driven, so I'm sure you can do it! I had mine 9/12, right after the beginning of a fall semester in my phd program, and ended up withdrawing from the semester because it was just too much for me in addition to my full time job, kids, and recovering from surgery. I started back this spring though, 4 months post op with no problems at all. :-) Keep up the hard work!

      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.
