Mrs King, I'm also June 5th but that's a Thursday. Freaked out for a bit. Just wanted to let you know incase you are planning for a Friday date.

But I'm not so nervous yet. Or excited. I just want the day to come. I want to be done with it so I can start with this new life I have been waiting for. Congrats to all us June Sleevers!

My surgery is on June 10th. I am so afraid that part of me want to back out, but i know that i cannot.

I have 4 daughters and the youngest is 4 years old. I am so scared about the dangers of surgery.

How are you post-ers feeling? what has been the most challenging part of your recovery?

My kids are what makes this the scariest thing for me too. I have five kids ages 2-7. I'm heartbroken to be leaving them at home for a week to do this. My son asked me if I'm going to die. :( I can't say "no" because that is a risk no matter how small... But thankfully we have a very strong faith in God being in control of our lives so that helps us. I'm the most concerned about not having enough energy to keep up with the kids the first few months post op. But that will pass. Good luck to you! I'm glad to not be the only mom of young kids doing this! :)

      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.
