Name: Janet

How far along: 10 weeks

Due Date: 11/25/08 Dr says we will schedule a c-section two weeks before.

Boy/Girl/Surprise: too early to find out but once I can I will update you. We have two boys (9) and (5) we are hoping GIRL!

Rants: My back hurts, I have ligament pains already and time has slowed down. I already feel like i've been pregos forever and I only found out 4 1/2 weeks ago. AHHHHH

Raves: Wow I can't believe how it feels to actually eat and not get anything stuck or uncomfortable. I have learned in the last year that its ok to not finish all my food which has now helped me now that I have unfilled my band I know when I am satisfied. I got an unfill on 4/21.

Anything else: We were done having kids, especially since I have always had infertility problems and had to do IVF with my 2nd son. So this was a BIG surprise for us. I guess they are right these bands do help with infertility issues. OOps!

      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.
