I've added the following but that's up for discussion:

Surgery Date

Name

Highest Weight

Surgery Weight

Current Weight

Pounds Lost

Goal Weight

This is the first time I've shared a Google doc so once you get an invitation from me, please try to open the spreadsheet to revise. Then click "save and close." If you can't get in, let me know pls!

I can not remember my google password so I guess I can't get there. Supposedly they were going to email it to me but nothing in about 3 hours

:tt2:

Oh I didn't know you had to have a google account to see the spreadsheet. I figured you just had to have had me "invite you" with the email account you provided me!

Hmm I finally got it. I resubmitted the request. But then it said I do not have access to the spread sheet. I am doing something wrong I think.:tt2:

nrpnrp - did you give me your email address on the other thread?? I don't see where you gave it to me on either thread or via pm. I would've thought to view it, you would just have to click the URL below to launch. Providing me your email allows me to "invite you" to make changes to it. Just FYI

What happens when you click the link? This is the first time I've shared a document via Google so I'm learning here.

Like what? food. This diet is something by it's self. Just trying to keep up with my Proteins and make sure I eat alot of green veggies. I also found out that I could eat Pork Skins, (if you like them), they have No Carb, No Fat and 9g proteins.

I am an October 1st Bandster. So far things have gone pretty well. I seem to be able to tolerate the liquids at this point. I don't have any feeling of fullness and that sort of bothers me. Thankfully, I haven't had any vomiting or horrible nausea either, so I shouldn't complain.

Yahoo! Glad to hear you are doing well. Are you back to work? Any advice on what to bring to the hospital? Did you have much abdominal pain? Since I have had a couple of abdominal surgeries and know sort of what to expect that is not a big concern for me. When will your doc let you do mushies? drive? hopefully the vacuuming won't come too soon LOL.

      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.
