Hello everyone! I'm looking for some buddies to connect with! :)

I live in la habra ca. I am able to drive farther if needed since I already go to support meetings for wls all the way in fountain valley every week! :)

I'm also wondering if there is anyone around my age doing the surgery as well? I am 19 years old, just thought I would ask.

I am more than happy to connect with absolutely anyone. I have my sleeve scheduled for Nov 18! :lol:

Los alamitos isn't too far away from where I am, I'm in La Habra. February is going to come quickly! Congrats on getting started on the process! I just had my surgery on the 18th this month

Ohh okay awesome!

I'm still at the point where I cringe at the thought, smell, or look of food. It disgusts me right now haha. I'm still struggling to get down my liquids. Its been extremely hard for me, every little sip hurts. Hoping tomorrow is going to be much easier.

Good to know! My parents keep freaking out thinking I'm going to have to be admitted back in the hospital because I'm not drinking much and its because I can't yet haha my tummy gets so full on so little. I feel like its just still swollen maybe and I think I have the excess acid problem so today I'm going to start taking prilosec and hopefully that does help

      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.
