Okay, I'm a little bummed we won't be back to back, but happy for you!!! It felt so good to have an actual date, and now, for me, it's just 6 weeks away! And 9 for you...time will fly! I keep putting off purchasing my plane tickets...when I was shopping for dates in Feb (back when I was just wondering and adding up the costs) tickets to San Diego were around $300. Now that I'm going around Spring Break time, they are almost $600. And now I'm buying two tickets, since my sis is going with me. Getting pricey!

Okay, so who's your doctor and where are you going? You need to add this info to your signature! Make it official!

My doctor is Dr. James Smith out of Pueblo Colorado. I will be traveling about 365miles from Albuquerque, New Mexico. Since my surgery is on a Thursday I will have to stay in a hotel until that Sunday Night to make my Appt. on Monday, then I will be traveling back home.

Thanks everyone for your support!

      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.
