please help! i have fallen into complacency....i was all reved up and rearing to go mexico (haven't decided on a doc yet) then i fell off the motivation bandwagon. i think a lot of it is coughing up the dough, but the biggest lack of motivation is the absolute stonewalling i am receiving from the hubby. so, HELP!, i am in the comfort zone trap! if i can get over the fear of taking on the debt, i'm golden....(sounds horrible, but screw the hubby if he is going to act like this) and please, you may mean well, but i don't need ways to talk to him. i have tried everything! he is ACTIVELY making it harder for me to go. i need talk about bang for my buck! LOL!

I would venture to guess that your hesitancy may be coming from a place other than just the money, because you knew the cost when you first explored this option, and it didn't deter you then. Maybe your husband's negativity is wearing on you and creating doubt. You're in a tough situation, as I know how badly loved ones can sabotage you when you're working on self improvement. It leaves them feeling very threatened and vulnerable. Additionally, your positive changes will open options and opportunities for you that may have you scared too. All you can do is trust that you are deserving of looking and feeling better and all the wonderful things that will come with that! This is not an expense. It's a very wise investment that will SAVE you money many times over through the years. You go girl!!!

      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.
