My boyfriend ate an entire McDonalds Cheeseburger meal in front of me plus 2 Cookies. Granted I had given him permission earlier, but I took it back when he walked in the door. I was sooooo mad!!

THEY CHANGED MY SURGERY - AGAIN!!!!! :) :)

So now I am September 23. They waited until TODAY at 3pm to call and tell me. I was very upset. I started to cry :mellow:

Now I should tell you that this Nurse has been extremely cold and almost rude to me, but when I told her that this is the SECOND time they have rescheduled me and all the problems this is going to cause, she actually had compassion. She forgot that I was originally scheduled for 9-17 and they changed it to the 19th. Since I was emotional, I also told her that I was taking vacation for this, it had been planned, cancelled and rescheduled and now they are making it so that I have to take 4 days off instead of 2 days. I was not a happy camper :cool2: but what was I going to do, they have a THREE month waiting list and they are graciously squeezing me in, and I get to be the first surgery. Goody :tt2:

So for the first time I actually put myself before my company. Mind you I have a few people off on Medical, one habitually, and for the past 5 years I have cancelled and rescheduled so many vacation days that they pay me off at the end of the year for 4 to 6 days, I just run out of time to take the days. When we have been short I have worked 10, 11 even 12 hours a day.

This time, this is important to me and I am sorry that this will make the Department short, but I have to do this, for me! I know that is not very Company Orientated, but this is important and I am going to have this done! I have always put work first, never miss a day being sick, I take vacation days around the flow of the office, cancel vacation days and cut my vacation short even changing our plans. But not this time!

I have the Nurse's promise 99.9% that this is the last change.

Sorry this is so long :w00t:, but I guess I had to write it because tomorrow I guess I am going to tell my Department that I am having surgery. And I was going to keep it a secret, yah right............ Sorry GG for making you change the list, again.

Well at least I am still a

SEPTEMBER SAMURAI

      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.
