HI everyone!

I am interested to know if anyone of you have a medical alert tag. If so, what do you have listed on it? I am going on a cruise in January and I want to get one before I do. My husband is getting to the point where I think he will forget to tell people that I had the sleeve done and I do not want any tubes being put down my throat in an emergency and holes being accidentally put in my stomach. Any suggestions of what to put on my Bracelet?

Also to add, I am from the East End of Long Island, Suffolk County. I had my sleeve done January 22, 2014. Best thing I ever did for myself but I struggle every day to make better choices. Really need to find the right support and refocus myself!

Hi guys! I'm new to Bariatric Pals. I had surgery November 25, 2015 at Montefiore Medical Center. I believe I might be suffering from a hunger headache but I'm doing my best to keep up with liquid diet.

      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.
