Would be nice to join however 99% of my FB friends and family don't know about the surgery.

Good luck :D

I also can't find the group, and I'm hoping that's because the group is set to "secret" so it isn't searchable and our friends can't see us in it. :) If that's the case, send me a friend request on Facebook so I can join! You can find me at www.facebook.com/heleneval My date is July 14, and I'm in some WLS Facebook groups but would love one for July sleevers!

I added you so that you can invite me to the group :) Erica Jo Jo is my name for my Facebook. I have a separate account for all of my WLS stuff. It makes me a lot less paranoid about friends finding out :) I get sleeved on the 8th

Could you add me too? Lanamac2.0

I'm getting sleeved July 23rd. In a Canadian going to MX. :)

I created an alternate FB to join because like many, only the closest ppl to me know about this journey of mine.

Thanks!

Hey everyone, I couldn't figure out how to join the other Facebook group, so I started one. It is a SECRET group, so none of your friends will be able to see that you are in it. It's not searchable, so the only way to join is to send me a friend request on Facebook and I will add you. Please go to www.facebook.com/heleneval and add me as a friend, and I will add you right into the group. :) It's for all July 2015 sleevers!

      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.
