Yes, I need to do the bone density (I haven't scheduled it yet) and in July I go for an endoscopy (I have GERD). I don't see the dietician until October.

Hi I had gastric bypass Aug 08th 2014....coming up to two year anniversary. I lost 126 lbs within 4 lbs to goal. Started at 297 now 175. Feeling great no regrets. Going for pannulectomy and abdominalplasty this coming july 18, 2016.... Very excited about that. Anyone had this procedure and able to speak to me about the recovery they experienced. Would like to loose more but i guess will see after this surgey if I need to keep going a little lower.

      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.
