I will stay in the Toronto Area until Monday afternoon.

The clinic told me I could fly home Sunday already, but I thought in case something comes up I still have the chance to see somebody at the clinic on Monday morning.

I wonder how I will think about the whole process in a year and how much I will weigh. Oh my, this is so exciting... and a little scary.

Will you fly in to Toronto, too or do you live closer?

I am only an hour away....so I will drive in that morning and come home to the comforts of home. If you need to chat and support over the w/end I can leave my phone #. Are you coming alone? I am sure all will be fine and this time next year is gonna be wonderful - we will be in skinnier clothes, hanging out at pools and enjoying a different, happier, thinner life!!!!!!!

Thank you Suzie! That's so nice!

I will come alone to Toronto and have a nurse taking care of me the first 24 hours.

I have a two-year-old and decided that I feel more comfy knowing my two men at home and doing this adventure on my own. It seems less stressful. :)

Hi Suzie,

It's your big day and I am thinking of you.

I wish you smooth sailing and a speedy recovery.

I am back home with my family and doing okay. I have to be a little careful of my over excited 2-year-old. He has sharp knees and ellbows ;-)

Hi Kat,

Glad you are home with your family. Hope you are doing good. I am up and about - they repaired a hernia while I was under so I have some pain from that. All is good though.

      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.
