I decided I felt good enough to cook dinner for the kids, so I did. And then I cleaned up after dinner. I was pretty sore after being on my feet and up and down all day. Today is much better. I've been resting while they're all at school.

I have revision surgery on 5/4. I'm a little scared because of the damage the band caused.

Hi New. I was the same way. I was terrified of the sleeve surgery. I had myself convinced I was going to die on the table. My surgery was 3/18/2015 and here I am talking to you. It went well. I feel great. I'm already off my diabetic and BP meds and both have been normal. I am adjusting to my new stomach and learning to eat more slowly and mindfully. I hope all goes well for you. I came really close to backing out and I'm very glad I didn't now. Peace, John

I have not been sleeping. I hope I can get some sleep before Thursday. I am nervous but also anxious to get it done and come out on the other side. Good luck, I'll be thinking about you on Thursday.

      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.
