@@WLSResources/ClothingExch Thank you so much! I indeed was excited about opportunity that I have and I wasn't afraid to let her know it. I answered her questions as honestly as I could and when she asked me questions like what support system do I have? and what kind of complications can occur post surgery? I impressed her with just how much homework I had done in preparation for this entire process. All the same I am very happy to have gotten past this stage of the process. :D

Darling Diva, see what I meant? See how cute you are? You're excited as a puppy or the little girl who wanted to please the teacher. You are going to be a wild success with this weight-loss thing. I'm grateful to you for the reminder that it is exciting and that it works. I fell of the wagon long ago and am dragging my feet about making an appt with my surgery practice to see where my band is at and what's next. Thank you for being here.

@@WLSResources/ClothingExch you are too kind! I am equally grateful for you being here to provide insight into this entire process. I have struggled with my weight for so long that I have learned that the process to recovery is long and patience is key. It's okay to fall off the wagon as long as you remain strong enough to get up, dust off those bruises, and get right back on the ride. No one said that this would be easy but its not impossible. I encourage to choose today as a day of reflection and figure out what areas you can improve in. Once you come up with a plan of attack then make an appointment with your surgeon's office to find out where you are. It's only over when we choose to give up and give in. We are all in this for the fight of our lives. I am rooting for you because I know that you have it in you to be the best that you can ever be. {{{Big Hugs}}}

      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.
