Freedom of speech. You do know you can block a person if you dont like or want to see what they are saying, right?

This is a secular website and freedom of speech does not come into play. I shouldnt have to block someones comments because they are spewing fairytales of a religious nature that do not belong on here.

Preacher this is not a website for you to be peddling and advertising your religious beliefs. This is a website for and about weight loss surgery. I personally find your comments offensive as I am a non-believer. I am a former Christian and intend on staying that way. Please keep your views to yourself.

Be it known this day, I will not apologize for being a preacher or for proclaiming the gospel, but you are right, this is a weight loss board.

Since this is a weight loss website as you say, I will be more careful as to what and how I post on it, that doesn't mean I will not tell people that I will pray for them, because I know that there are many on here that finds comfort in it.

I could say a whole lot more, but I have learned that some things are better if not said.

The Preacher!

Wow, you sound like you have anger issues. I find your rudeness offensive. Now that we have that out of the way...I'm pretty sure you could've expressed yourself in a more respectful manner. No need to be obnoxious just because YOU don't want to hear something.

And by the way, you might want to rethink your profile name because you certainly are NOT positive...and I'm being polite here.

I'm not apologizing for my faith or what I am, but please forgive me for causing tension among some of you on this particular post, I never meant to create hard feelings between anyone. So please forgive me for doing so.

      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.
