That IS cute! I didn't officially vote b/c my surgery won't be until June or July (if I get approved). I'm a teacher and have off in the summer. :thumbup:

When are you going to close out the poll BB? Also, everyone, I finally figured out how to post the logos I came up with so take a look when you get a chance.

I am going to make one more suggestion, if I MAY... :smile: (pun intended, bad joke, I know!)

After we get the results from this poll, I think it would really be more fair if we took the top 3 and then voted on them. We don't HAVE to but it just seems that other than May Flowers the rest are pretty spread out and if there is anyone on here who just doesn't like the flowers thing then they are out of luck. At least, if it was narrowed down to 3, there would be a better chance of it being a "fair" poll. I guess I would liken it to the presidency... they only let us choose from 2 in the end...

BUT that's just my 2-cents :lol:

I have been on vacation for awhile and just getting back to the boards. I like all the names for May. It will be fun to give us a REAL name.

I did have a meeting with my dietitian this week. I start on a liquid diet on April 24th with 1200 cal and 60g of Protein a day for 7 days and then only 860 cal and 60g of Protein for the 7 days just before my surgery on May 8th. I have to purchase IMPACT online to have 2 a day the last 7 days with one other kind of choice. I am working on MIND OVER MATTER.

It is going to be very challenging for me.

Missy,

We can do another poll, but lets only run it for like 3 days or so. You can set it up if you don't mind. I'll be heading back to school on Monday, all the fun and games are over as Spring Break has officially ended:(

Mae,

Welcome back! You will do great on the preop. Just remember what you are doing it for. It will be hard but worth it in the end :teeth_smile:. At least it's not a 2 week liquid diet. If you need supportm we're here for ya.

Krysten,

Sorry to confuse you. I wasn't sure how long we wanted to let this go so I just put in a date until we had a plan. We decided to let it go through this weekend so it closes tonight. If anyone knows how to do this "Officially" please let me know. I think Southern Missy wants to take the top 3 and repoll. I don't care either way, we ran the poll and will have results. So do we take the winning name from tonight or do we repoll? I am so confused too :sad: I am soooo glad I have you guys to help me out :scared2:

      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.
