Wow, the time is flying by. Your surgiversary! congrats :)

I'm up for the 22nd or the 5th. That coffee shop in babylon that we met at a while back was nice, unless if Jack is coming straight from work, then we should find somewhere in Nassau.

Hi everyone,

Saturday, I come to The coffee House until 3:30 then I will have to leave. My daughter and I received a graduation invite to my daughters friend thought it would be starting at 6, but she is having it first at the Restaurant then the kids are going back to her house. I apologize that I will not be with you that long, but look forward to seeing everyone on Saturday.

It was great seeing everyone on Saturday. I have to say everyone looks absolutely amazing!!!!!Congratulations, to all of you on how well you are doing. Lesile recommended to me to sign up into "Meetup group" to see if others want to get together and talk about there challenges and struggles with there Journey. Be nice to get a small social group together to support each other as we near our 1 yr anniversary of the surgery. The real challenge now starts. Have a wonderful summer and let's see if we can meet up again soon.

That would be great, Laney! We have all come so far, both physically and mentally! Everyone looked great! I just recently started with meet-ups...good idea. We can Celebrate our successes as we gracefully slide into our second year.

      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.
