One consequence of having a gastric sleeve...

...is that I will be at a distinct disadvantage during the zombie Apocalypse. What was I thinking?!

I'll have to double my prepping efforts.

If you are stocking on food most people won't think of grabbing Protein powder so just get that when others leave it behind and you will be good

I'll be the first one to loot the local Vitamin Shoppe.

@"White Sale", I was thinking the same thing. All we need to do is hit the Vitamin Shoppes and GNC's while everyone else is hitting the grocery stores! Plus, we won't struggle with rations, because we won't need much to fill us up.

Hahahaha, I had the same thought as I was considering whether or not to choose the DS. The humor was lost on those around me, so I love this post!

      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.
