You are my female counterpart. All your numbers are almost exactly the same as mine. My highest weight was 362. My surgery weight was 326 and my goal is 170. I also was cut yesterday and at the hospital. Keep me posted on your journey and lean on me if needed. Eddie.

Thanks, I got sent home today. I was told by my doctor, that I could go home today or stay longer... I wish I could of stayed a bit longer to rid the gas pain. I don't regret the surgery, but I wish I was still in the hospital for another day or two. I thought one was supposed to stay until the gas was gone. I just took gas x and I am still very uncomfortable.

Congratulations on the next chapter in your life. The gas pain for me was not pleasant also. But mine did not start till about 4 days later. Try also warm compresses along with your gas x. It won't take the pain all away but help lessen the pain. Mine last about 2 1/2 weeks. I am one month out and feel great. Hang in there!!

      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.
