Hi all, I have regained 60lbs. I am 5 years out and need someone as supportive as I can be. I was thinking text, maybe phone calls, FB? I need a kick in my a@@ to get my head in the game. I'm addicted to slider foods :( I'm new here so I don't know how to friend people or search so well yet! Please, if God is leading you to me and vice versa, let's get in contact! I'm 42, live in bako, ca. Married, have a 21 year old son in the Army and a 4 year old miracle daughter. Look forward to meeting some new friends! Oh and I like long walks on the beach....ok maybe not long...like 5 minutes?

Hi I am from Cali originally! I am willing to talk to you and help you get back on track. I have many co-workers that have gained back weight. This is why I delayed my surgery. I finally have done it and they are giving me great advice so that I don't do what they did. You need encouragement with good ideas to try new foods that you haven't had. New foods with good flavor and not have to be bad for you. Lets figure out the program and keep in touch! don't be afraid to post any questions here on the site I usually get several suggestions when I ask.

Hi if you sign in and check at the top of the screen. When you click on your name it shows you different things you can set up for your profile. Just to the right there is a box and shows friends. I sent you a personal note so it might be there now and you just don't know its there. Keep looking around and you will find your way. If I didn't get the request to you please click up there and send me a request. :-)

I sure hope you find the encouragement on this web site that you need. I am just about 10 weeks out now. I am learning more and more each day. Play around with the site and see if you can find the nutrition section. There is a post for people are trying to start over. I wish you the best of luck. I feel the best I have in years! oh and Congrats on your miracle child! I know what its like to have a hard time to have a child. I had 8 miscarriages. I too was lucky and got my miracle daughter who is 18 now. I thank God every day for the people I get to talk to.

      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.
