I'm sure you were asking Glowing up but I'll tell you instead where I'm at. I live in Mount Vernon Ohio 14 miles from Ohio's Geographic Center. I'll have my RnY at Mount Carmel in Columbus early-mid March. Now you both know more about me than you probably wanted to. I have a BMI of 45 and I'm 5ft8in, settled down in old age from 5ft11in so yes my back aches too. I'm 72 but I'm it to win just like everyone else. I look forward to spending my remaining years thinner and healthier.

Yes!!! As soon as I got the notice that the approval was submitted to the insurance, I was nervous & excited at the same time. I'm ready for this new chapter of my life!

      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.
