@Rich Mack-phenomenal change. If that's a honymoon period of weight loss vision, I'm booking my post surgery to go there. What a true sincere reshaping your body is giving you- oh I hope my surgery body will do that too. Know it isn't just the surgery but work on your part also, but wow wow wow!👍😜

Thanks for the encouragement. I definitely have my bad HANGRY days but for the most part, the surgery has taken about 95% of my appetite away.

I know in some respects I have it easier than some, because I was only obese, not morbidly. However I promise this one thing is true no matter which category you're in. You will get out of it way more than it asks to be put in since the tool of Gastric Bypass is really doing the majority of the heavy lifting. All it asks of me in return is a little walking each day, the occasional bike ride and I park out in the boondocks when I visit Walmart forcing me to walk a little extra distance. The real change will take place in a couple months once I'm allowed into the gym. I used to be quite ripped, and hope to be able to get a small portion of that ripeness back. Best of luck on your journey I have confidence that you will see great progress yourself.

      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.
