@@lovingdavid have you been exercising? I haven't started exercising yet and I know I need to. Are you finding it hard for the 30 to come off?

@@dereksgram sorry to hear about the trouble you are having with the surgery, I didn't know that could happen with it growing back.

I tried to see if it was possible to go to Blossom's support group and they told me no because I'm not a patient of theirs. That sucks, the one my doctor has is on the days I work and can't change my schedule.

You are 100% welcome to come to the blossom support group, who told you can't was giving you bad info.

We have people from other doctors all the time. let me know when you want to go and I will meet and take you as my guest for the first time. so you will be comfortable to go any time you want.

Support Groups are very important for your success. I attribute my success more to the support group than the surgery

@ NevadaDave where is this support group located? Since I had my surgery back in July 2014 I never attended a support group. I always came into this site.

I started all that process December and January went in to see the doctor and for my date March 23rd the only reason it took longer is because I kept delaying my EKG test :/ lol

      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.
