You're welcome! I love doing stuff like this. ???? since it's private I'll need a way to find everybody on Facebook so I can add you as a member. We want to call it Cool Beginnings?

Is that how you find us on FB? By our name? Duh I guess so... I am Marlene ALtman in SF Bay Area CA. And yes "COOL BEGINNINGS" is a GREAT title for the group! Much more positive and certainly better than what I'd suggested earlier ("COOL LOSERS"- ugh) . THX for setting this up ;-)

I wasn't kidding when I said I was technically challenged! Do you need my FB sign in name or my real name or what if I set up a FB page strictly for this, then what is needed?

I need your real name that you use on Facebook. If it's a popular name then I'll also need a description of your profile picture or something. Thanks!

      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.
