Can the FB group be changed to Secret instead of Closed? I know a lot of people want their choice for surgery to stay private. I'm too afraid to join a non-secret group.

The FB group has been changed to secret. Now only people in the group will be able to see/find it.

Sorry about that!

I can't find the group. Maybe it's too secret now. Lol.

Can you please send me a request? On Facebook I'm Delilah Nelson

Thanks for changing it! It will be harder to join now though. I think whoever is in charge will have to add us.

Fair_Maidan, I'm going to PM you my email and I think you can send me an invite. I hope this isn't too much of a pain!

Hi again,

It looks like I can only invite my friends to secret groups on Facebook. For that reason I've changed the group backed to closed and updated the name and description to be just generically named July. There is no mention WLS so we look like a completely random group. If you have snoopy friends, they will see you belong to the group but will not see any posts. The link below will work so you can request to be added.

I've sent friend requests to some of you who have previously commented and can add you to the group that way as well. I just don't think it's right for me to force you to be my friend just so u can be in the group. ( I do however always like new friends :)

What you see when you click the link is the most your friends will see. If you're okay with it, we'd love to have you aboard :)

      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.
