Hi fillje1:
I'm not in NH I'm in FL, but I am just ahead of you in the process. Put my fitness pal on your phone and start tracking your food. That is what my nutritionist wants to see when I go back. Also they gave me a list of foods to aim for, your typical high Protein, low carb stuff but limit calories too. I was put on 1200-1400 calories a day. I am trying my best to get off white flower and sugar carbs as much as possible. In fact I am giving them up for Lent which starts in 2 days! Hopefully that will help me with the will power problem!!
Best wishes!!! I'm excited and trying to figure this all out too! If you hear of anything, let me know!!
Doris

Hi, All! I'm at the beginning of my six-month pre-surgery and in the Boston area (so in your neighborhood@fillje1 !). I've been researching WLS for a long time and after years of many ups and downs through non-surgical methods am excited to finally be taking this step!

If all goes well, I'll be looking for a sleeve buddy in 6 months too! [emoji4]

      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.
