My boyfriend or whatever you call him...lol and my best friend recorded me. Girl I was a complete mess. Once they start pumping those drugs in you...you will have no worries. Everything will be fine. It is like they rolled me into a party. lol. It has taken some getting use to. i was 3wks post op yesterday. It is a struggle finding pureed foods for me but I'm making it. Also only being able to eat about a ounce and a half of food seems a little weird.

Welcome. Just jump around on the various boards and comment or ask questions. There is a board for regional outreach, age groups, etc. I have seen other people from Louisville on here posting. Explore and ask someone you connect with to message you. You can put Louisville in the search box.

And you could share more info about yourself as well like - married, single, kids, degrees, interests, work, hobbies, fun stuff like that because talking only about issues gets a little old after awhile.

Good luck.

Start thinking about the new you thats about to happen. Go shopping & get something you want to get into. Make a list of all your meds & times you'll need to take them. Get organized with your drinks & items youll need post surgery. Get excited about your new journey that you worked so hard to get to!

Lol wish I knew. I was a hot mess the week before surgery. I spent a lot of time on here! It was wasted energy though because everything turned out great and yours should too. [emoji173]

I read the forums and comment when I feel like it- reading others posts and connecting with them will build your relationships on the site. I cruise the forums when I'm bored or want to eat something.
I've made some friends that ways I have only told a few people about my surgery so here is where I connect with people who understand what I'm going through or who can help Celebrate the little accomplishments.
So - that said, welcome!

      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.
