I'm in the same boat. I am also a High School Teacher and Coach. I am looking forward to the next 2 months figuring out this crazy new adventure. But I'm more nervous about going back to work. Working with kids leads to a whole different sets of questions and observation. Being it on!

Are you ready for this?!

Are you guys packing your bag and getting ready this weekend? I am only bringing a few things. Also, my husband has the flu. Last night fever, chills and diarrhea. I am so nervous that I am going to get sick. Only 4 days...

I will be packing my bag tomorrow! I have been slowly pulling out things as I think of them. Today I decided a coloring book would be a good idea. I figured it would be a good distraction.

Countdown 2 Days.

Do you guys want to contact on Facebook? Or group chat? We should keep in touch after surgery! I want to know how you guys are doing.

      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.
