Now the important stuff, no red pedi for me, no pedi or mani, period. That's okay, I can deal with small setbacks.

Amylynns, I'll get that list ASAP-super busy day

Next surgeries after AuriP tomorrow Oct 1 are superbariatricbabe and zoepoodle (have not heard from in a while). How are you two holding up? Pre-diet driving you crazy yet? I think I am driving my NUT a little crazy with so many questions.

Prediet is going okay. Less hungry during the day now. I think I'm getting about 800-1000 calories a day. Definitely sick of skim milk, but it's tolerable. sugar free Popsicles are a lifesaver.

Definitely planning a Netflix Gilmore girls marathon during my recovery- never seen it and my friends won't stop talking about it. ???? also planning my walk routes around the neighborhood.

I wonder how far it's reasonable to walk in the first few days home. Do they mean we're just supposed to walk around the house, or are we expected to walk outside right away?

      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.
