How are my February folks??? I hope everyone is doing well. I have been doing great...no issues at all. I haven't had any problems with eating meats and find eating easy most of the time. Just had a San Francisco vacation where I had to eat out every meal. Half the time hubby just got something we both could have and shared it....made for cheaper time. I did do my first wine while there on a Sonoma tour and I did get very easily buzzed off a few sips. After 5 different wineries I had 5 slight buzzes....but no bad affects. Still staying away from bad carbs, sweets, pastas, potatoes, and starches ...hasn't been too bad.

I just hit my lowest weight in 15 years and I am walking and riding my bike. Going for a 25 mile ride next week. I love being active again! Planning to join the gym next month. I am recouping from a total hip replacement and losing the weight has made such a big difference.

Total weight loss is 95 pounds and from surgery day...82!

      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.
