Does anyone else find it hard to figure out this forum? Would it be easier to email our "buddies" that are having Surgery in Dec/14??? I am just not really great with technology and find it so hard to communicate on these forums. Maybe thats just me??? Let me know what you......my new weight loss buddies think. Thanks!!!

@@Flaxseed You have to send me your email address so that I can send you a personal invitation. The group is both secret and private so you can't find it in a Facebook search. This way it ensures the confidentiality of all the members of the group, and no one other than the group members know its there.

If you send me your email address I'll be happy to send you an invitation.

Hi, I am schedule also for Dec. 8. I wasn't planning on having surgery until next spring sometime, then I found out that I had to have it by the end of this year. I am ready for it but still kind of shocked it is happening so fast.

      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.
