I'm doing pretty good. My husband said we walk about two miles yesterday. We walk to the Wal-Mart down the street. It was a bitch getting there cause it was all up hill.

Yes, I've still taking pain meds. Friday, we went to San Diego. I did way to much. We went on an old navy ship and submarine. My husband wasn't sure I could do it but I had never been on one so I was determined. Going through those holes left me in a lot of pain. Then we went on an air craft carrier, by the end of that I was in tears. My stomach and an old hip injury (which was hurting me much more then my stomach). Today I'm okay. I went to a medical supply store and got a binder for my stomach and it's helping a lot. I'm at work so I don't want to take anymore pain killers.

Yeah, on 16 lbs. I've been taking Vitamins for over a week now. I started the full liquids early b/c I felt so bad & the vitamins help. My husband just made me some Soup I can eat. First thing besides shakes and yogurt, I've eaten. My energy is slowly going up. It's annoying me to no end not being able to pick up my son. One more month! I've been walking but get winded and tired easily.

      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.
