@@Alex Brecher

back when you started the "VIP" membership(?)

many of us became automatic members

possibly because we had made X amount of post???

or just because we are special wonderful people? LOL :rolleyes:

VETS were supposed to get special info?

we even had a secret handshake!!! LOL

I paid for MFP premium, and I have a bit more control over telling it when to tell at me (macros etc) than before. Not renewing it though

Whoops just saw that the question is re:the boards here. My premium is for MFP, I am tired and not reading well

I have used the free version of MFP for over two years and find it the second best tool to help manage my weight (the sleeve being the best tool).

I've often wondered myself if a premium membership would be worth the fee. Thanks for the question and responses.

      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.
