My goal at the moment is to get up to swimming 1km per night. While I'm up at work (mine site), that means 50 laps of the little 20m pool. So far, I did 14 laps the first night, 20 the second and 32 last night (640m). I'm going to go for the lot tonight!! I think it will be a little easier when I get home and can use the 50m pool at the local fitness centre.

Forgot to post an update - I made the 1km on the night I posted this and did it again the next night too! I went home on the following day and didn't get as much walking in as I should have, but still managed 2.5km on 3 out of the 6 days I was home. Back at site this week and made 1km in the pool for 3 nights, but got a little slack for the rest of the week. I'm heading home again today and going to aim for 6 days of walking!

Had my first fill on Thursday...hoping it will kick in soon...not feeling much of a difference. It was under fluoro...thought I would really feel a difference. I am on soft foods...maybe it will change when I'm on regular foods tomorrow...here's hoping to some restriction!

I'm close....I gave myself till the 19th...exactly two months from surgery. My goal is 180...and I'm at 185 right now...so don't think I'm gonna make it....but I'm still psyched. I wore a pair of dress pants this week that I haven't worn in two years! That was very rewarding!!!

      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.
