Hey Guys; My sleeve is scheduled for Monday 10/20 @ noon. Great to see guys (no disrespect meant to the girls). I look forward to following you and allowing you to follow me. I'll have to remember to check-in and report out regularly. Super excited about Monday. I'm a "surgery" expert, so this procedure doesn't worry me at all. At 51 and now single....YAY! Oh; sorry....lol....I feel this procedure is the start of my very lengthy "bucket list", of which, I am now completely in control of.....YaY! This is all about me....finally! Not the kids, not the Ex....just little old me....well, not little... I've been living the lifestyle since June 2014 and have lost a bundle of weight and feel great. I just might make it to my goal weight....as defined by the experts....of 155. I think I was last 155 in Kindergarten....lol. I'm spending this weekend getting my business in order.....cleaning my apartment, shopping for stage 2 foods, walking the dogs, listening to meditation/relaxation recordings, etc. Trying to decide what to pack for the hospital. But being a guy - I may just wear out - what I wear in....and take some essentials in a shaving bag sorta thing. Hey dtill1147 where did you get that scale thingy above? I'd like to have that for tracking/posting.

Hi Lag50, simple, look at the very top of page you will see your login name, at the end of it should be a little cog or wheel looking icon click on it then from the options pop up select trackers. The rest you can follow the directions. Man our big day is close, they called me and mine is set for 11:00 AM so I will beat you by 1 hour.LOL

LIL - thanks for the tracker info. Best, best, best wishes for your surgery. I would say that I'll be thinking of you at 11am, but I'll probably be thinking of food since I can't eat past midnight...lol.

All right guys....less than 24hrs. Whatcha doin? Resting? Stressing? Eating? LOL. I'm just chillin....cleaning a little so I can come home to a clean apt, did my phase 2 shopping, a little home office organization, laundry so I can come home to a Downy Fresh bed....lol. Took my pups to the doggie resort so I don't have to worry about them for a few days until I feel better. Been on liquids for the past 2 days so trying not to spend any unnecessary energy...lol. Ummmm......that's about it.

I am in the hotel right now resting. I was flying for 24 hrs and had very little sleep. Haven't eaten during that time either...and not hungry...not sure if it is nerves or something else...

      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.
