Congrats... Wish they'd hurry up and give me my day ... For sure in late may or early June. Already started my pre pre op diet. The last couple of weeks went by fast while I finished my check list but now with nothing left to do time is moving a lil slower.

Hi everyone, starting my pre op diet in a few days and I'm a tad nervous but excited at the same time.

I've already started eliminating most foods but Thursday is my last day for caffeine... Oh my... That's going to be hard.

I've also started to journal and want it to be a daily & continuous method to track my food, supplements and exercise. I joined myfitnesspal today, haven't done anything on there but would like to. If you want to add me, please do... It's dolphin_flygirl

Ideas for an app to chat:

whatsapp, Skype, Kik,

Anyone else have ideas?

I am at a very uncomfortable weight and find it difficult to do so many normal activities and honestly I just would like to walk without being out of breath.

Think I've written too much.

Anyone who wants to join me on this journey, please message me.

      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.
