:thumbup: Sounds interesting....I'm gonna ask the hubby as soon as he gets home to see what he thinks. I'll figure out the cost of everything to see if we can swing it. We live in Beeville...5-6hrs from Dallas.

I can still get the discount if I sign up today so looks like I saw this in time, huh? Thanx for the info, maybe I see ya there! Joanie :o)

I have found 1 gal here local to carpool with and share the room with. My vehicle comfortably seats 4. So if anyone else wants to carpool with us, that would be great. The rooms are 99$ a night if you stay alone, with one friend or with 3! I already have someone staying with me, but it sure does cut down on costs! Let me know if anyone else wants to carpool with us.

      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.
