Sorry to hear about your mom.

Don't worry about your check up I'm sure you'll do fine. Stress can really do a number on our bands, I know when I'm stressed out my band is really tight. Anyway good luck on your appt. and I'll put your family in my prayers.

Going swimsuit shopping when I get off work UGH!!!!:redface: It supposed to be 90 on Sun so I will have my happy butt on the boat (can't wait) But nothing from last year fits so I'm off to the mall. I ordered one off line but it's on back order, Which bites because I can't seem to find a one peice that fits with big enough cups. I got a nice cover up now I just need something to cover up. I'm sure I'll be a little aggravated with the saggy inner thigh skin thing going on But I'm trying to remind myself it's better then not fitting into one. Wish me luck.

Butterflies, I am down 2 more lbs. Yay! Dr Davis gave me some homework......recite positive affirmation before I go to sleep and when I wake up. Then paste a picture of me I hate next to my favorite food. That is on top of the page.....on bottome paste a picture I want to look like along with a picture of a healthy meal. I have to look at it before going to sleep and when I wake up. It is somehow supposed to get down in my mind. I am sure this must be in the Beck Book , but I didn't get that far. I go back to see him in two weeks. I am still doing the nutrition classes on Wednesday.

I hope all of you have a great weekend!

Kimaly, good luck on the swimsuit! Have fun!

Oh, and thanks for all the prayers. I put my mother in skilled nursing care yesterday for rehab. She is so much better.

      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.
