thank you L.Lee .........

CONGRATS FROGGY,

I am really happy for you. I am 4 weeks out today (well yesterday). Yes, my surgery was an experience and it is being quite the journey currently. One thing I will say is that I made many modifications at least 6 months ahead but nothing prepares you for this change until your stomach changes. I mean this in the most positive way. Yes I have had some struggles in just 4 weeks but I still made the best decision.

I have a gift for you in an attachment below. Glad you liked my "new frozen yogurt find" Froggy, I have never believed in luck, and frankly I can't stand the word. Instead..............................

God's blessings upon you Froggy,

Lisa

WOW!! So many thank you's went out. That is so kind and considerate. People initiate kind gestures because they want to not 'cause they have to. When you can't show any other form of gratitude a "thank you" is always the best etiquette. I never received a thank you for my well wishes and I even sent a hook up for free Bariatric Vitamins. I received a "like" instead. Oh well onto the next person who will be more appreciative........SMH a.k.a shake my head

      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.
