Hi everyone. My husband just told me that I can go ahead and schedual surgery with Dr Kuri in Mx. I have been talking to hubby about it for a while and told him how Dr Kuri seemed wonderful; but he had reservations about Mex. Then we were watching the news last week and they did a special on Dr Kuri and hubby felt much much better about it. Yay! I emailed their office today and just waiting to hear back about a date. My BMI is just under 35 and I am 28 years old and a student and mother of two. Its so nice to finally post because I have been reading all of your guys posts for a long time and feel like I even know some of you from reading your post here haha while you have never really heard anything from me. Isnt that weird?! Anyways, Yay for me! Maybe Ill meet someone who will have surgery the same day as me. That would be so great because its scary even though Im excited.

      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.
