Hi Suzi

. Welcome to,Bariatric Pal.I,am,pre surg myself should have RnY early-mid March at Mount Carmel in Columbus Ohio.. I have hit a minor snafu and will know more how my own journey will be going Tuesday or Wednesday. I'm,not gonna say too much more or I'll start crying and won't be able to text right. I am 72, weight 323 down from a high of 355, 5ft8in so that gives me a. BMI of 47. I can't tell you how long I've been obese so,its say for giggles and laughs most of my adult life. I have sleep apnea, have had arthritis both kinds since 25, I am sick and tired of being sick and tired.I am tired of looking like Bip the Michelin Mans sister. This might be my last chsnce at not dying.And I want to,live, I want my last years to be thinner and healthier, diets did not work for me. I've tried most everything up to and including starvation. Tried cutting back to 1 small meal a day. Oh no my body said, I'll just shut her metabolism down. I'll leave her cold, dizzy and feeling weak. And it did. I have been clinging to this hope of a tool,to help me. If this falls thru what do I do??. Keep praying, lighting candles ask a tribal elder or shaman to Do a dance, I'm rallying every force I can think of. Jewish, Buddhist, Christian, Arab, Eskimo, Indian, I'm calling for your help.

      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.
