Best of luck to you coming from me here in Wales. You will do fine. Please keep us all posted on how you are doing and feeling, and remember its a big steep hill you have climbed, but after the op its all downhill! Keep walking as much as you can after the op is the best advice I can give you. I will be thinking of you

I've lost 13lbs on my pre-op diet, so hopefully that will help.

How do you add tickers, I can't get mine to work?

Finally, No car to meet me, I was in a blind panic until he turned up half-an-hour late. Halfway to Brno smoke started coming out the bonnet so we had to limp to nearest services and wait for a replacement car. Got here finally about 9.30pm. I'm shattered, left home at noon.

Clinic lovely and spotless, nurse speaks good English and is very friendly. I nearly snapped her hand off as she brought me some dinner.

Bobos for me now, I'll update you when I can as it all kicks off tomorrow around 5.30am apparently - deep joy!

Glad to hear you are feeling good. Just got back from week 4 day 3 c25k. Was thinking of you. Guess what - you will be walking and doing the activity of your choice soon enough. No one was more of a sloth than me!

Best wishes from sunny Pembrokeshire Wales

      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.
