Just as a side question- why do I have so many underlined words in my posts? I don't purposely do that at all. It's kind of annoying and weird.

It's automatic. BariatricPal, links keywords to their products.

I guess that does make sense. Glad to know I wasn't missing something that could have turned that off. TY!

If the BariatricPal Store sells something with that word, it'll automatically underline and hyperlink, it's weird lol

How did you get your ticker to show on your posts? I created one but it hasn't appeared on any of my posts. Thanks

I don't remember the exact steps, but I just clicked on the my tickers in that drop down menu and picked the background and picked the turtle as the walker. Now if I click on the my ticker drop down it brings up a page with my ticker and some codes to paste if I wanted and a create ticker box in the upper right. Maybe you just have to complete it? Not sure and sorry I'm not much help.

Once you create it, there's a button on the tickers page that says "Add to signature".

      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.
