LJM...I love the fact that you are going to do the "pampering day" b/4 your surgery. Good for you!!!!!!!!! Just want to wish you good luck with your surgery. We all deserve to wake up in the body we thought we would have when we started this process. I, too, will some day need TT and who knows what else. I am yet to be banded, have lost 40lbs pre-op and can already see the hanging apron.

Happy Anniversary and I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers on surgery date. You will do just fine

Get on the Z pack A.S.A.P., get your fluids, get some extra rest, don't kill the Damned Husband, and calm down. A couple of days can mean a lot of healing.

Sending good thoughts your way :biggrin: I saw on the other thread that you woke up early and couldn't sleep. I know the nerves are kicking in at this point. You talked about freaking out your in laws. Thats great. I hope you get the same look on your face that my wife says I did when I first looked down and saw my results. She said it was priceless. Wishing you a quick and illness free week :biggrin:

LJM: Bother, bother and more bother! Sorry about your DH. Funny thing is, I am also on a Z Pack. Have a head cold and sore throat and my doc said to take it just to be safe. I'm praying it kicks in! Earth life can be such a trial! Remember: Breathe, Believe and Be Happy! I keeping telling myself this. Good luck!

breathe (thats a toughie), believe (yikes), be happy ... that i can do... later. :biggrin:

im really quite bitchy today...

the good news is, i called my PCP and she said i can double up on the Z pack, so that's a good thing...

bad news, im completely unfilled and have gained a couple of pounds. im making poor choices and it needs to stop.

hope you are feeling better soon, karey.

      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.
