Cerrin . . . it would be good to have someone to go with . . . but I did make it a bit more comfortable for myself . . .I joined a Women's Fitness center . . . so i'm not QUITE as uncomfortable as I would be in a co-ed gym. My son cracked up when I told him where I joined . . . he said "don't you remember me writing a paper about how that place being sexist when I was in high school" . . . lol . . . guess I don't . . . but I like it there.

I went to the gym last night. I walked for 30 minutes. I am going back tonight to walk another 30 minutes. I will do the weights starting on the 14th along with walking. I am determined I need more then just the food to get this weight off. The people I see losing and looking good with little to no hanging skin excercised.

So I dont want all the hanging skin if I can help it so I am going to excercise.

Since the gym won't let me on the equipment until my doctor's letter gets here . . . and my swimsuit hasn't arrived yet, I've been walking at lunchtime the last couple days for 45 minutes . . . I have to keep moving too!

Hi Folks, I won't get my band until late March, in Mexico, but the patient coordinator told me to go ahead and start the pre-op diet, so as of today, I am officially on my way! I am not scared at all, just wish the surgery was sooner. I am quite committed to making this work, using the new tool as it was meant to be used, and to come out of this a much healthier, happier person.

That's great, but you're posting in the wrong area. Try reposting this in and "Introductions" thread.

      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.
