O man that sounds good. Lol... I'm so past ready for something to eat that will not make me feel like I need to talk to the toliet. Turkey and chicken are the only meat so far that don't cause any issues but they have to be alone veggies have to be seperate. I feel like I can eat more then I should be though.. sometimes 2 or 3 bites is enough and I'm full other times it's about 6 bites and I'm full. I'm 2 months out and down 48 pounds. I'm trying to figure out what to do for my first 50 pound loss as a reward for all the hard work.

@@brokenangel84 in regards to you feeling like you are eating too much, just listen to your body and if there are no repercussions to eating 6 bites then you are ok :) and for your 50 pound celebration you should treat yourself to an activity that isn't food. I think one thing about this surgery is that it changes you physically but not mentally, that is something you have to do yourself. I know before surgery I would always Celebrate with sweets or my favorite foods but when I lost my first 50lbs I went to high rise which is like an indoor gymnast playground with trampolines and it was very very fun and rewarding.

Our best friend who lives right down the road has some gym stuff I can co.e use so I don't have to go to a gym,has a bowflex,stationary bike and a few other things. So treadmill isn't really needed. I can make do without it by going there.

Hi everyone! I'm pre op and I need some help!!!! I'm on Medicaid and cannot for the life of me find a psychiatrist who can do the psych eval and takes Medicaid. It's so frustrating because I have worked so hard and this is my last step paperwork wise. I'm just so close to this surgery and I've hit this road block. Anyone else here on Medicaid that could help me?? I have called so many places. Thank you in advance.

      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.
