I took the survey but the last question didn't have an answer for me but I had to pick one anyway. I'm just starting my journey.

Done.

Question #10 needs a space for "other." I consider myself successful so far but, I'm only 3 months post op and still have more weight to lose.

Ditto on the last question...no choice for me being only 3 months out.

I completed it too. I agree with the others-question #10 needs another option for those of us who are still on our journey.

Done, and I agree with the others about question #10.

The questions about spending on Protein products and Vitamins required me to select a response even though I typed in my answer under "other." And the one about Vitamins did not specify whether minerals (eg Calcium, magnesium) should be included.

Agreed. They published the survey and realized this error after receiving results.

I believe the results will be skewed based on the choice of answers for question 10. Hopefully there is a larger percentage of margin of error for this question.

Survey has some problems -- if I pick 'other' it doesn't see that as an answer and won't advance the survey -- thinks the question is unanswered.

      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.
