Hi Fran2014!

I don't live in Ontario, I live in Victoria, BC. You are the first Canadian I have come across!!!!

My surgery date is May 28th. Would you be willing to be buddies even thought I don't live in ON?

I understand if you'd rather someone who lives closer. Just let me know. Thanx.

Hi Charlie. Yes I would Love to be your . That way it's faster for me to reply to you. I've been to bc and stayed with my BFF in kalowna two years ago. Well I'm excited and can't wait to go to Mexico. It seems that everything is falling in order. I'm just worried about my pre op diet cuz I hate Protein Shakes. Anyway email me so we can chat some more. Take care, Franca

      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.
