Oh my goodness I am getting so excited!! 3 weeks from today I'll be flying through the friendly skies on my way to meet my VIOLETS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm up for anything on Sunday... I'm thinking that after Fri & Sat activities, maybe we should just take Sunday as it comes, see how we feel, etc....... I am EASY (not THAT kind of easy!)... meaning, will go w/the flow & flow w/the go... but it's good to have options! Just having a long weekend for JUST ME to ENJOY is more than I can ask for!! It's been... forever?... since I've had one, so I don't even know what I'll feel like doing!!

On the topic of meeting up @ the airports... why do I have the sneaking suspicion that that is NOT going to be a problem... for US... but for the others at the airports who are near us when another Vi is spotted... ooh la la... watch out peoples!

3 weeks! 3 weeks! 3 weeks!!

It was so cute _ I knew the tune... and it has not left my head since I read it. LOL

You guys, seriously, I can't believe that I am actually getting on a plane, not once but 4 times with my layovers! I know I'll be fine but i'm so anxious. I can't wait to get there but it has been 8 years since I've flown and I had a nervous beakdown then. I get anxious, can feel my bp going up every time I think about it. I walk around telling myself to just breathe... People are starting to think I'm nuts becaue they have no idea why >>> LOL

I think that is why i'm putting off packing and stuff. I don't want to bring a carry on. Can you bring a laptop on the plane to watch a movie? with some head phones... it will all be good

      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.
