hobbesbobbes, congrats on having a surgery date! I have my last NUT this Wednesday. Can't wait to get my surgery date! I have Dr. Katz. How long did you have to wait for a surgery date once you got insurance approval?

Hi Lancaster folks! I am planning on going to the group meeting next Thursday. Anyone else going and we can all sit together?

How will we know each other??? I'm Laura
i would love to meet you. I usually sit in the back corner when you first come in.
Ok. That sounds like a plan. The corner where the receptionist is or that little waiting area when you go in on the right?
rhetoric corner off to the right just when you walk in the door. Across from the receptionist.
How about we all get there at 530? You know that place gets jam packed the closer to 6 it gets. That way we can all be sure to sit together.

I just found out I hate to work late Thursday night and won't be able to make the meeting. Sorry ladies maybe next month.

      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.
