Tommy you practically brought me to tears brother your truly a Christmas miracle. You have so much courage to put your story out here and help so many people that are struggling with weight. You are my true hero. I'm probably looking at surgery sometime in Feb.

I would probably guess the hospital bill in NYC would be about 3 million dollars lol. Tommy I hope we can be friends even though I'm a Yankees Rangers fan

Going to you tube to check your videos out. Merry Christmas brother keep up the good work and keep us all posted.

That is what I was hoping to achieve with me telling my story , is to inspire others to get up and do their own thing and accomplish big things too. Thank you!

@@Tommy910 from a fellow Canadian you story is very inspiring. Thanks for sharing. It's amazing how much you have lost so far. I truly hope things go smoothly for you the rest of the way. I had my sleeve surgery on dec 8th, my highest weight was 432, and CW 359. It's a long road to take. Slow and steady! Looking forward to hearing the rest of your journey. Go Canucks go! Sorry had to add that in. Lol. Vancouver BC

      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.
